YOU ARE NOT ALONE

Photo provided by Sadie Marea

Do you ever feel like the little scrub in the photo?  
Feel like you are out there in this world all alone. 
Feel there is no support around you and that the
harshness of your surrounding will soon  
over take you. 

I think we have all been to that point at 
times in our lives.  Seems like the harder
we try the further we fall.  That is 
not always a bad thing.  This last couple 
years in my life has pushed me outside 
my box and working in organizations
that are doing things that have never 
been tried before.  Doing so is a 
welcome invitation to failure.  But that 
doesn't stop the tears from flowing 
when I stop and think I am alone 
battling things the average woman 
would never consider battling. 

Prior to the light bulb being invented, 
failure triumphed every day for a long
period of time. 

After the light bulb was invented there 
have been thousands of bulbs that 
have gone out leaving us standing in the 
dark.  Yet how thankful we are that 
someone took the time to try, try again. 

"Never give up," has been my motto and 
"Slow go is better than no go" but there 
are days I feel like the scrub sitting 
out among the rocks basking in the 
hot sun and I must take the time to 
pull away and have my soul restored
so that I might continue to press toward 
the mark. 

What shall we then say to these things? 
If God be for us, who can be against us?
Romans 8:31
