I have been thinking of that old hymn, “If the Lord wasn’t walking my my side.” Those words resonate in my mind. Knowing that He is in control has gotten me through the worst times of my life. I cannot imagine how I would have gotten through without knowing that He was there. Helpless? Isolated? Lonley? Terrified? Heart broken? I have “been there, done that and got the T shirt”. Without knowing that He was walking by my side, and carrying me, during the worst times, … I cannot imagine those scenarios without that assurance.
I gave my heart to Him when I was only 12, and, I have made many mistakes along the way. No one is perfect. I never claimed that title. I only know in Whom I depend. He has never once failed me, and He never will. I am so grateful to be His daughter. I am so grateful just to know Him. He is my Everything.
When all else fails; He will never fail. As I grow older; more and more , I realize my inferiority. He is Omnipotent; I am not. He is the Alpha and Omega; I am barely a dot in the middle. All that I am, all that I have, is because of Him. His Grace, His Love, are the only things in this world that will ever matter.
If one word that I can say or write, will glorfiy my Lord; then my life is not in vain. If one word will help alleviate someone’s pain, then, my story is worth telling.
In all that I do, let Him be glorified. “If the Lord wasn’t walking my my side.” Let Him be Glorified!!
