There is a song a friend of mine would sing. I will need find the CD to get the words right but from memory they are something like this...

When things go right...Praise His name.
When things go wrong ...Praise His name.
When we feel we are in the dumps...Praise His name.
Lift your hands and praise His name.

I was at a party at my sister's house. About 20 people there but I felt alone. I wasn't relating to anyone there. Most all of them had a few beers and I don't drink. Though there was ok conversations with a few, I stll felt alone in a crowd.
An hour ride home and now sitting alone in my room. I read a few pages of the bible as I was reflecting on the things I had just read, I felt that the room was full and I wasn't alone. That one day showed me no matter where I am or what I am doing...The Lord is with me always. It took my pastor reminding me that even in the crowd of the party...He was there, the same as He was with me in the stillness of my room.

You are never alone. The Lord is with you always.
