Never Forsake You

Being torn in so many ways.

Not knowing how to feel or what to do. 

Walking lost in a world of chaos. 

You look right, you look left, not knowing which way to turn.  More confusion, more stress, and more pain.  What do you do? Do you continue to walk lost? Do you ask for help but from whom? Who can help you deal with this ever changing of times?  You fall to your knees in despair.  Your strength is gone.  You cannot do it anymore.  Your fight is over.  You cry out for Him. You ask Him for strength, wisdom, and guidance.  He reaches out to you.  His arms wrapping around you.  Loving you.  Taking your burdens.  He helps you to your feet.  You begin to feel the love He is expressing to you.  You know you are not alone. He is with you and will not forsake you. 

As you begin to walk in the world of chaos, you fear nothing because you know He is with you.  The negatives you once saw is now allowing you to see the positives.  You long for more of Him.  You want to be the light.  You want to shout that you are free. No matter the world around you, you know He is with you. 

You know the more you "trust in the Lord with all heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths."  Proverbs 3:5-6
The more you trust and lean on Him the less looking right , the less looking left with occur.  Focus on Him and your paths will be straight.
 
"Be strong and courageous.  Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you." Deuteronomy 31:6
