You Need Never Walk Alone

   I  knew several weeks ago we were headed for a rough time, I just didn't understand the full scope of it at the time. Through it all,  I have been able to wake up every morning praising God with the affirmation "Greater is He that is in me, than he that is the world."  I've been to the valley, but I didn't walk alone and therefore can proclaim with the words of the apostle Paul, "We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed"

  I shudder to think what it would be like to walk this road alone.  I thank God that, just as he did many years ago with His original creation, He meets me every morning, in the cool breeze of His Spirit, with outstretched hand  and issues the same invitation, "Come...Walk With Me." He says to me, in the still of the morning "Come, share with me all  that you are and allow me to share all I AM with you."

  We need never walk alone in this life.  God longs to walk with us every step of the way, to share in intimate commune with us.  So, Just as He has done throughout the ages, He stands before us with outstretched arms pulling us ever closer with his mercy and grace.  His hand is open, waiting for us to reach out and grasp it and once we have it is His desire that we never let it go.

You'll Never Walk Alone

I said, ” The path is steep.”
He said, ” I’m at your side.”
I said, “But I am weak.”
He said, “For you I died.”

I said, “Dark valleys come.”
He said, “I’ll guide you through.”
I said, “But I’m not brave.”
He said, “I’ll walk with you.”

I said, “Be light to me,
And strength as I go on.”
He said, “I’m more. I’m love,
You’ll never walk alone.”
