>“And as they departed, Jesus began to say unto the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind?”

My faith wavers constantly, brothers. I am in sorrow because of loneliness. I am doubly minded. My heart yearns for those things which please the flesh and my soul commands me to follow those things which belong to Heaven. I have witnessed miracles in my life. There is no doubt in me that God reigns in Heaven and that Jesus Christ is his Son. Nevertheless, this world weighs heavy on me.

>No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: and yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

Matthew 6:24-34

To put it simply, focus on God and don't stress about the future. If you put God first, God knows what you need and will provide for you. I'd also add that you should pray often. Don't just pray about how you're lonely once and forget it. Pray about that everyday if necessary. Also, when you pray and ask for help, you have to genuinely believe that God has taken care of it for you. You shouldn't pray and then be plagued with doubt that God isn't going to provide (obviously you shouldn't pray for hedonism, but that goes without saying, and wanting a woman in your life is not hedonism).
