Verse from John

“我不会撇下你们为孤儿,我要回到你们这里来。”
‭‭约翰福音‬ ‭14:18‬ ‭

“"I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.”
‭‭John‬ ‭14:18‬ ‭

“A journey” describes life in this broken world. On the way we encounter mountains and valleys, rivers and plains, crowded highways and lonely roads—highs and lows, joys and sorrows, conflict and loss, heartache and solitude. We can’t see the road ahead, so we must take it as it comes, not as we wish it would be.

The follower of Christ, however, never faces this journey alone. The Scriptures remind us of the constant presence of God. There is nowhere we can go that He is not there (Ps. 139:7–12). He will never leave us or forsake us (Deut. 31:6; Heb. 13:5).

The challenges and opportunities we face on our journey can be met confidently, for God has promised us His never-failing presence.

Loving Lord,
thank You that You not only know the path I take, You walk it with me.
Help me to rely on Your presence, help, and wisdom every day of my journey through life.

Faith never knows where it is being led, but it loves and knows the One who is leading. Oswald Chambers, My Utmost for His Highest.
