It's nice to know you're not alone.

My daughter called me because her baby sounded funny.  She thought he was probably alright, but she sounded a little nervous, so I went to her house to check on them.  I had a feeling the baby was ok, but I wanted to reassure MY baby, and make sure she was ok.  My mother had done the same for me when my baby was new.  I'm sure she'll do the same for her children.  It's what mothers do. We comfort and nuture and make sure our children don't feel as though they are alone and without hope or help.  They may go through trials, but they never have to go through them alone. 
     God is like that with us.  He never leaves us.  He is always there to comfort, to guide, to reassure us, and to give us strength and courage to 'keep it moving' in the right direction.  We will have our trials, but we don't go through them alone.  He is always with us.  Our prayers of faith bring His intervention.  His love is without bounds and his grace (unmerited favor) is given freely.  He leads us out of the fire and into paths of righteousness.  We will not be burned.  We will find peace.  We are not alone.
     Heavenly Father, we are not alone because You are always with us.  Sometimes you solve our problems for us and sometimes you watch as we solve them ourselves.  The most important thing is that we are not alone.  We love you, glorify you, and offer you our praise.  We thank you for all that you do for us and for helping us to stand in the face of adversity when we no longer want to stand.  It is easier to sit or to give up when faced with trouble, but in you oh Lord, we have our strength.   Because we can do all things through our Christ who strengthens us, we always triumph in you.  Thank you Lord for planting our feet firmly on the ground and giving us wings like eagles.  We bless your name and give you our all so that we may stand, in faith, victorious.   In Jesus name we pray, Amen.
