    A.W. Tozer emphasizes the inherent loneliness that often accompanies a saintly life, illustrating this through the examples of biblical figures like Enoch, Noah, Abraham, and Moses, who each walked a path distinct from their contemporaries. He notes that true spiritual depth often leads to isolation, as the saint's journey with God can create a chasm between them and society. Tozer argues that this loneliness is not a sign of failure but a necessary aspect of a deeper relationship with God, where one learns to rely solely on Him. He warns against the false comfort of superficial companionship and encourages believers to embrace their solitude as a means to draw closer to God. Ultimately, the lonely saint is not withdrawn but is more capable of empathizing with the brokenhearted, using their solitude to serve others.
