- Ecclesiastes 4: 8-9…Two are better than one. If one falls, the other lifts him up. Woe unto him who is alone when he falleth.
- Matthew, Chapter 26: 56… But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled.
- “You may feel lost alone, but God knows exactly where you are, and He has a good plan for your life.” Charlie Brown
- “[Empathy] is defined as ‘the action of understanding…and vicariously experiencing the feelings, thoughts, and experiences of another. With so much pain and despondency, so much hopelessness, one thing we certainly ought to try to give [each person we serve] is the reassurance he is not alone. We should be adamant in stressing that God is with him, angels are with him, and we are with him. Empathy. Sounds pretty inadequate, but it is a place to start. We may not be able to alter the journey, but we can make sure no one walks it alone.” – Jeffrey R. Holland
