Alone

I was laying in bed thinking of my next words. (Other things flowed too). I really need to take a tape recorder or some other object I can write on to have on my nightstand.

My left hand is tingling again. (It’s been happening a lot).

Oh Lord, you have examined my heart and know everything about me. Psalm 139:1 NLT

I re-read that even though it is highlighted in purple.

You know when I sit down or stand up. You know my thoughts even when I am far away. Psalm 139:2 NLT

I fall back into my chairs quite a bit now. So He knows when I do. He knows when I stand up too. He doesn’t need anyone to stand up for Him. However it just dawned on me that He likes it. Not to revel in pride, but it shows that we are learning. Learning not to be ashamed of Him.

You see me when I travel and when I rest at home. You know everything I do. Psalm 139:3 NLT

I do rest and I love to travel. One day I would like to make it to Iceland. Maybe I will, maybe I won’t. The fact is, He knows. He knows if I will see it in person or via photographs.

He knows everything I do. He did before I was plagued with MS. He knew this was coming. He knew how I would handle it. To me, that is pretty cool.

You know what I am going to say even before I say it, Lord. You go before me and follow me. You place your hand of blessing on my head. Psalm 139:4-5 NLT

Despite all my faults & weaknesses He chose me.

Physical faults such as, I do not run a 5K. Instead I walk funny. (Have you seen me walk lately). I talk differently. Thank you damage to my brain. Hey, I can now say I am brain damaged. That cracks me up. (Another thing I just thought up).

I am never alone because He is right there. It is weird that there is an all knowing presence with me at all times. Something I easily forget. I say, “I am alone” a bit to my husband. (A lot!)

I am with you always, even to the end of the age. Matthew 28:20b NLT

My head was saying the last part. I had to look it up. What a comforting promise.
