Never alone...

“And instruct them to keep everything whatever I have commanded you, and behold, I am with you every day, even unto the end of time. Amen”
~ Matthew 28:20

You are not alone.

One of the first trips I made out towards the Texas City Dike after Hurricane Ike, there was a single pole along the shoreline that was left. It had been a part of a dock that had washed away during the storm.

Although it stood alone it still served a purpose. A single bird was perched on it.

To the bird, it was a place of rest and a place to watch the ships go by. It was still useful.

Helen Keller wrote, "so often we stare at the closed door that we miss the open window."
So often after a tragic loss or change in our life we don't see that there are still many things we are useful for.

There are many things that occur in our life. The important thing is to recognize that when something comes to an end, it is like the closing of a chapter of a book. It's time to write the next chapter.

God is always a God of new beginnings. God assures each of us that God will always be present. With each new beginning, and at each moment where something may be an end or a transition is encountered, God is very real and present.

​Have faith, you are never alone, and it is never truly the end!

Stay in God's grip!
