I am alone… I’m single, but unafraid. ย I am confident in who I am. ย I am a blogger and a daughter of an Almighty King. ย I smile in the face of adversity.

I am alone… My mind wanders to places it hasn’t been for some time. ย I consider letting someone in.

I am alone… My heart beats wildly as we talk face to face, through random Facebook messages and eventually texts.

I am not alone… His faith strengthens mine. ย He provides comfort through the Word and his prayers.

I am not alone… We share common interests, common desires for mission work and to serve God fully.

I am not alone… We also share in struggles of the flesh.

I am not alone… We allow our struggles to become one.

I am alone… I willingly turn my back on God and run to an earthly creationย for satisfaction.

I am alone… I have allowed myself to become attached. ย My heart cries out for more, but he is unwilling to reciprocate.

I am alone… I am a stumbling block beforeย him. ย I need to stop pursuing him. ย I am an evil temptation. ย I must surrender my feelings to God.

I am not alone… I, raw and broken, bow before the Almighty and seek forgiveness. ย I pray for patience or for the desires of my heart to be removed, so that I can make more room for God to enter in.

I am alone… Accusations that I’m not strong enough in my faith arise. ย “You need to stop!” echoes in my ears and I begin to doubt myself.

I am not alone… I am one of many caught in his web.

I am not alone…ย Disturbing truth comes to light.

I am alone… As sick as it may be, I want to run to him for comfort. His power over me is that strong.

I am not alone… God has protected me through it all.

I am not alone… There are people surrounding me with love and prayers. ย There are shoulders to cry on, hands to hold, arms to envelop me in hugs. ย There are prayers being lifted from as near as the next cubicle, to as far away as Napa Valley.

I am not alone… The road will be long. The numbness will wear off and the aftermath will be messy. ย The healing will take time. But there are people who will walk beside me. ย Jesus will be there too.

“I am not alone. ย You will go before me. ย You will never leave me!”
