You're Not Alone

This morning, I received a timely phone call. I know it was truly the Lord's doing, as this is not someone I speak with frequently. After asking how I was doing and how my kids were doing, the caller said, "The Lord is right there with you in the same boat...in the same storm."

Those words began to resonate in my spirit. My spirits didn't lift immediately. But, my 'funk' that I've been in seemed to not be so funky! I really just needed the Lord to speak to me (though thru a human) and let me know that I wasn't alone.

Many times, we can go through trials, tribulations...LIFE! It seems that no one cares or is concerned about what's really going on with us. It seems as though we're alone and just going through day after day after day. But that's not necessarily the case! God strategically places those in our lives to minister to us at the appointed time! My friend reminded me this morning of the story of the disciples being out in the middle of a storm. While they were fretting, Jesus rested right there on that same boat...out there in the same storm!

I'm encouraged by this call and want to encourage you today. No matter how bad that storm is or how tumultuous the 'stuff' is, He's right there with us every step of the way. Don't look to the left or the right, and definitely don't look behind you! Continue look to Him, the one who's right there by your side! Remember that He didn't bring us this far to leave us :)

Blessings,
