Never alone

Hebrews 13:5b "because God has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you."

Not only am I never alone, but my companion is God of this universe. He created all things and everything that is, is because of Him. This tree in front of me, He created. The grass, the sky, the moon, the sun, everything from His hand. Yet, He never leaves my side. I have been fortunate over the years to have family and friends, yet not one of them has always been able to be with me. No one else can possibly know what I think, what I feel at all times - only God who loves me. When I cry out, He hears me. He does not turn and walk away - He hears and comes. He knows every giant I see, every fear that grips me - that is why He reminds me that He is here with me.

He has made so many promises - always ahead the promised land. But those who looked at the seen, spoke of the giants in the land, lost sight of Who was with them on their side. They didn't listen when He told them to not fear. He was there - He knew their fear, yet He reminded them that their Creator would take care of them. No giant is too big for Him.

Today He reminds me through His Word that He knows all and is here with me. Nothing takes Him by surprise. He knit together everyone of us in our mother's wombs. He knows us intimately. He knows every detail of our lives. The "giants" do not scare Him. He is God. And He is with us.
