[marriagerestoration] Digest : He Will Never Leave...!

For He Himself has said, "I will never desert you, nor will I ever forsake you." (Hebrews 13:5c)

In your situation, your spouse may have walked away from you, but you are not alone. In the midst of unspeakable sorrow God is with you. Even if you do not feel Him near, God is there. He promises to never leave you alone.

Therefore, wherever you are, God is. He is with you before, during, and after "the storm," never losing sight of you, or your suffering. Even as you ponder how you will begin picking up the pieces of your life, God is there … loving you beyond understanding, holding you up, and making a way where it seems there is no way. Reach out for Him today. He is a very present help in times of trouble (see Psalm 46:1).

In His sovereign magnificence He has declared that He will not leave you nor forsake you.
NEVER. What comfort. What hope. What joy it should bring to your heart. No wonder this same author could conclude, "We can say with confidence, 'The LORD is my helper, so I will have no fear.'" Today, bring whatever struggles you have, whatever fears, whatever guilt, whatever sorrow and lay it before God. Then hear Him say, "I will never leave you nor forsake you."

When everything else is stripped away, when all the things we are attached to are gone, we discover that in the end, only God holds life. It's only God who matters. And His promise is certain. When all else is gone, God is still there. God's sweet voice saying, "I will never leave you nor forsake you."

God is teaching us the only place for our trust is in Him. Everything else will fade or let you down. He teaches us that over and over again in the Bible, because for some reason, we humans have a hard time getting it. Our tendency is to put our trust in things instead of Him.

When we really experience that promise, when we really know that God will never leave us nor forsake us, fear disappears and worry is no more. Life is never again measured by what we have or who we know, because we know the One, the One who holds life, the One who holds the future, the One who provides, will never leave you nor forsake us."
