“The Lord himself
goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.
Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged” (Deuteronomy 31:8)
Has your heart been
ripped into shreds? Do you forget how to reach for His comfort and strength?
Does discouragement rule your moments? Do you feel deserted and alone? So many
of us face these feelings of betrayal and rejection at some time in our lives.
No matter how rejected we feel or betrayed we feel, there is the promise of His
constant presence and abiding love. He never betrays or rejects. He accepts
where we are. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. There is no change
in His love and abiding care. He is our rock.
I can say, “The Lord,
my rock, goes before me to protect me from what lies ahead. He will remain with
me. He will never leave me or forsake me. I don't need to be afraid or
discouraged, because He will take care of all that concerns my life. His
strength will carry me through all that comes. I won't be discouraged because I
might feel alone, because I'm not. I have the greatest ally on my side. Fear
will not take over my life, because His perfect love for me will cast out all my
fear.
“I will always
remember that I am not alone. I will always remember that He will never forsake
me. He cannot deny the love He has freely given to me at Calvary. Whatever
comes, I will not be afraid or discouraged. I will trust His heart and His love
for me. My heart will heal,and one day His peace and joy will reign
completely.”
