You Are Not Alone

You Are Not Alone

Someone I dearly love is in pain today. Once again her heart has been broken and discarded as if it had no value or worth. Once again she sheds tears of grief as she feels the loss of another dream crushed under the weight of sin.What is she to think or feel? What does she do? She does the one thing she knows will make the difference between life and death. She falls on her already calloused knees and through weeping eyes she looks toward heaven, reaches out her arms and cries out for Abaa Father."

Daddy, hold me," she cries. "Father, help me to resist the tempation to turn my pain and suffering into bitter hate." This is her prayer, her heart's deepest desire for the preservation of her soul and spirit. It is here, in His Presence that she is reminded, and where she knows that she is not alone.

You see, she has been the other way. She has taken the seemingly easier path and turned her back on this One True Love in her life and felt the ensuing separation.What are you doing today with your pain? Are you reaching up and out to the Perfect One? He alone is able to see you through and preserve you. He collects your tears. He bears your sorrows. He knows your inmost parts and He has you safe and secure under the shadow of His wing. He has given us a Comforter who testifies to our hearts and reminds us that we are not ever alone.

"You've kept track of my every toss and turn through the sleepless nights, each tear entered in your ledger, each ache written in your book." ~~ Psalm 56:8"

Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows..." ~~Isaiah 53:4"

And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever- the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you. I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you." ~~John 14:16-18"

Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me!For my soul trusts in You; And in the shadow of Your wings I will make my refuge..." Psalm 57:1a

Dear one, go to Him. He alone is able. He is the one who will never, no never, ever, let you down. Allow Him to take up residence and fill every crack and crevice and lead you onward and upward toward visible victory.
