You’re not alone.

You could fail a thousand times a day, but He remains faithful.

You might not be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel, or even far enough to take the next step in front of you, but He is ready to catch you if you fall.

You may find yourself without even the strength to get out of bed, but He offers you His.

You might feel lost and lonely in a crowded room, but He is with you. You are never alone.

He knows your pain and weeps with you. He knows your struggles and rejoices with each little victory. Sometimes just holding on and weathering the storm for one more day is victory enough.

You may see yourself as worthless, but He still loves you. This might make no sense to you, but it’s true. He is love. Love is not just what He does, it’s what He is.

He is the ultimate, infinitely loving, joyful, peaceful, satisfying, open, committed, generous, intimate, and uplifting fellowship, and He wants you to participate. Not just watch from the other side of the room, but be actively and fully involved, and be completely healed, purified, and invigorated.

You can’t escape from His love. Wherever you go, from the most luxurious palace to the cruellest dungeon, from the most pristine cleanroom to the filthiest sewer, from the depths of the ocean to the depths of outer space, and everywhere in between, He will be there, loving you.

You don’t need to be famous, you don’t need to be popular, you don’t need to be loved or praised by those in charge. The glory that this world offers means nothing in the end. The glory and peace and love and fellowship and satisfaction and joy that awaits you will make all of your sufferings down here worthwhile.

Cling to Him, open up to Him, and trust Him, because He loves you.

He sees you, He hears you. He has not abandoned you, and He never will.

You’re not alone.
