4: Put on a happy face | Masks

Many people wear a mask of putting on a happy face despite hidden painful emotions. And behind this mask of happiness often hides a battle with the emotion of loneliness. This is an emotion that we all struggle with at times in our lives because it's the most common emotional pain in our society. In fact, you can see this from a lot of tell-tale signs in our society today. People who feel lonely but hide it well have mastered the art of disguise. They wear these different masks while secretly yearning for connection and companionship. In the message we will discover that the Bible provides us with several people as examples of those who went through a period of being lonely. We will also see what God thinks about loneliness and the remedies He offers us.
