Walking with God and not alone

Walking with God and not alone


Are you tired? Do you feel like you’re alone? Are you just plain worn out emotionally? Fear not for you are not alone. I was reading my daily devotional this morning by Dr Charles Stanley and he talks about this very subject. I have so much on my plate right now from work, kids, and kid’s other parents. It’s a very stressful time of life right now, but I am taking comfort knowing that God is there with me. I am reminded that in the Christian walk it was never promised our troubles and trials would disappear, but that we would no longer have to deal alone. Read Galatians 5:16-26.

Life is full of trials and conflicts. A Christian’s life seems to continue that way, but now we have nonbelievers watching and observing how we deal with these issues. Instead of throwing in the towel and giving into Satan, we must stand firm in our faith and walk in step with the Holy Spirit. Doing this will help us get thru the conflicts we are traveling thru and it will also show the nonbelievers God’s presence. We rely on God for our strength and just when we feel like we are just too wobbly and weak to continue, you find new strength. This is God picking you up and helping to you continue forward.

WOW! Doesn’t that just take your breath away? To know that you are not alone in this world and you won’t fall on your face. Sure times are hard and sometimes we do hit the bottom, but in that case it’s not because God is being cruel and wanted to see you fail, it’s the exact opposite. God wants your attention and if your not doing as he is telling you to do, you actually cause your self to fall, once you fall, then you can look up and start again, but this time on the right path. Remember no matter what God is there. So, say a prayer today, let God know of the things you are troubled with, let Him know you need guidance and strength thru this time. I promise if you completely release it to Him, you will feel lighter and you will have found renewed strength to move on.

Hang on tight, the roller coaster of life is sure a wild ride and can be scary at times especially thru the dark tunnels and when you feel upside down, but scream if you must, pray each minute of each day, and rely on God to get you thru. Don’t rely on yourself or your human nature. We humans have a tendency to make a bad situation much worse.

I pray that you will allow God to guide you thru life. Let Him be your light on the path. Hold His hand and stick to Him. I pray that as Christians you learn to lean on God for strength and you also learn to lean on your fellow Christians as well. I pray that God will bless you in a very special way today. In Jesus name I pray, Amen!!!

Please have a joyous day.
