Never Alone
PSALM 23:4
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. God longs for a deep and abiding relationship with you. Because He is dependable, He wants you to depend on Him. If you are healthy, you aren’t likely to be going to the doctor’s office anytime soon. This is because everything in your body seems to be working and doing what it is supposed to do. But when you become sick, and especially if that sickness continues for a long time, chances are that you will make an appointment to go visit your doctor. Similarly, sometimes God allows troubles or trials in your life to get your focus back onto Him and the purpose He has for you. He doesn’t want you to walk this road alone. He is with you even when you forget that He’s there. He longs to be close to you.
His power and grace are with you, and they will comfort and direct you. God sometimes calls us to walk through valleys. I can’t promise you that life will be without wind, clouds, and rain. But I can promise you that you don’t have to walk through the valley alone. If you will cast your eyes on Jesus Christ, He will meet you where you are. So keep walking. Don’t throw in the towel. Don’t say that you can’t make it, because God will make it with you. You don’t walk the road of destiny all alone.
Dear God, thank You for being so close to me that in the valleys of my life, I am not alone. Thank You for bringing comfort when I need it and using the trials of life to guide me along the path of my destiny.
