This is a day to give thanks to the Lord , He has done and wonderful things for me and I rejoice in Him.
The Lord has given me plenty of reason to celebrate His goodness and lovingkindness.
Today I miss my parents , who now live in heaven and my family who all lives far from me. Oh how I wish everyone was physically present in this house.
People who come to visit me often ask me if I am ever afraid living alone. Does the darkness scare me? Do I feel lonely?
And I can honestly answer, No I have never once felt fearful or alarmed . I do feel lonely but not alone
The Lord' s presence is with me . His angels protect me. He sends help at the right time.
A few weeks ago when I was sick with viral fever , too ill to even get up and get a glass of water, I felt God 's hand holding me up during the long restless nights.
The Lord replied, 'My presence will go with you and I will give you rest." Exodus 33;14 NIV (BIBLE)
Listen to this song by Don Moen.
And now let the weak say I am strong
Let the poor say I am rich
Because of what the Lord ha s done for me-
Give thanks

Thank you again for this encouraging post.

Thank you for both your lovely reflection and the beautiful hymn. I've never heard that song.
Hey Hon. I very much understand when you say you can at times be lonely but are never alone.
Most of my life I've lived alone. but don't recall ever really feeling lonely. God walks with us daily. More a matter of us paying attention than any lack of he being present.

"And behold, I am with you all the days ..."
Dear Amrita,
I'm glad to learn "that you are lonely, but not alone.".
This is encouraging to learn.
"My presence will go with you and I will give you rest." What a mighty testimony.
I know those restless nights and what fear they may bring.
I thank the Lord for you, witnessing to the world.
Dear Amrita,
You post is full of faith and courage. You're an amazing lady, and I'm so blessed to get to know you through your beautiful writing and messages of hope and thankfulness.
I wish we live closer, I'd visit and hold your gentle hand, and tell you what a beautiful soul you are.
I love that song, and the pictures used on the video. Simply gorgeous.
Blessings.
Doris
Dear Johnny, I have lived in a joint family with my aunts and uncles plus my own family unit, sometimes there were 10 or 12 people all living under one roof
