you are not alone

Here's the truth in love:

Remember that you are not alone. "The Lord, He it is that doth go with thee. He will not fail thee neither forsake thee. Be strong and of good courage." (Deut. 31:8) Jesus promised His disciples, "Lo, I am with you always." (Matt. 28:20) Never mind if you cannot feel His presence. He is there, never for one moment forgetting you.

-Elisabeth Elliot, Passion and Purity (p. 79)

I need to remember this - He is with me always, even I cannot feel Him. He is right here. What a comfort. And what a joy to know that I am so loved.

You are not alone. I think those words alone could heal and transform even the most desolate or hardest of hearts.
