Never Alone


 A few years ago the band Barlowgirl released a song called “Never Alone”. It dealt with the idea that sometimes we do not feel God’s presence but we can know that we are never alone.  Over the years I have noticed that simple truth is so reassuring.  I know that God is guiding my path yet it seems often that He works so subtly that I do not always notice. 
The Psalmist wrote that God’s love endures forever:
Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good,
for his steadfast love endures forever.
Give thanks to the God of gods,
for his steadfast love endures forever.
Give thanks to the Lord of lords,
for his steadfast love endures forever;
(Psalm 136:1-3 ESV)
That is such a comforting promise. That no matter what God’s love endures. No matter what we do God still loves us. He endures with us forever. That is why we are never alone. Isn’t that a wonderful idea. Let us praise the Lord who is with us always. Even if we do not feel his presence we know that he is there guiding us and molding us to be what he wants.
