As AJ sang this song this morning at Ethos, this lyric really resonated within me. "Never once did we ever walk alone. You are faithful God..." I must admit, I walked through a season this past winter where I couldn't see what God was doing, and I didn't sense His presence. It was a very dark time in my life. I was in despair. And if felt as though I was so weak. I was barely crawling through life, brokenhearted.
It feels amazing to look back and see the path that He had me on during that time. All along He was whispering to me, "Keep going, my love. I am right here. Trust Me, even in the darkness, even though you can't see a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel. Trust Me."
And now, it all makes sense. Now I see what He was doing. I am so humbled and grateful to Him for those days. The pain and darkness was so worth it! I wouldn't trade it for any amount of joy and happiness. As I look back, I know without a doubt "Never once did I ever walk alone..." He never left my side. He carried me through. And the place He has brought me to is so beautiful, filled with more trust that ever before.
If you are where I was just a few months ago, I want you to know, He is right there, even if you can't see Him, or feel Him. Even if your path is black with darkness, He is right there. You can trust Him. Hold on! There is light coming! Don't give up! He is God!
