Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee. (Deut 31:6)

Even though I have had several relationships during my life, I have spent much of my life alone, by choice.

I think it may have made my journey down the Narrow Way a bit easier because “Alone Yet Not Alone” is how I have felt during most of my Narrow Way walk, especially for the first eight years.

There is a big difference between being alone in the physical sense, and being alone in the spiritual sense. Both can be a challenge, but the Strait Gate and Narrow Way journey has been an adventure like no other.

From the time the Lord called me until this very day, I have never looked back nor questioned my steps, though the Lord has had to correct my course.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. (Ps 23:4)

And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God. (Luke 9:62)

I took solace in the Bible and God’s word as He led me out of this world; slowly dying to it and everything I was attached to in it.

None of it mattered any longer. I was totally focused on my salvation walk and finding Jesus.

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. (Matt 6:33)

God the Father has been drawing me to Christ Jesus since the very beginning and continues to lead me down a way I know not.

And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them. (Isa 42:16)

From a major relocation (moving from California to Wisconsin); through all the health issues I have battled (including Stage-4 COPD); and through my spiritual quest for the Lord; the Holy Spirit remains here to comfort me.

Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. (Isa 41:10)

The Lord has never forsaken me, even when I thought He should have or felt like He had; like a particular time when I wandered away, being tested by Satan, and still Jesus was always there watching over me.

He truly is The Faithful One and I am never really alone. It is only by the grace of God that I am still here at all. He strengthens me with every step I take and every day that He gives me.

My soul melteth for heaviness: strengthen thou me according unto thy word. (Ps 119:28)

I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. (Phil 4:13)

“Alone Yet Not Alone” is a beautiful song, found below, of worship and praise to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ; sung by a woman, Joni Eareckson Tada, with an incredible voice who is a quadriplegic.

Only a miracle of God could have given her the ability to sing like an angel, when she can hardly move her body at all!

Write-up about Joni and the song “Alone Yet Not Alone”:

“This song is featured in the movie Alone Yet Not Alone, ready for release June 13th, 2014, and is performed by Joni Eareckson Tada.

“As a quadriplegic, Joni, with limited lung capacity due to her disability, had her husband, Ken, pushing on her diaphragm while she recorded the song to give her enough breath to hit the high notes.”

---

Joni has been a quadriplegic (from a diving accident) since she was 17-years-old and celebrated her 75^th birthday in 2024, by the grace of God.

I came across Joni when I was feeling sorry for myself. She has been a breath of fresh air to me.

“Suffering is something that either drives you away from God real fast or drives you to Him. I just happen to be one of those people who was driven to Him.” —Joni Eareckson Tada

What an amazing woman of faith…though I do not know if she has had the revelation of Jesus Christ.

Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ: (Phil 1:6)

LYRICS

Alone Yet Not Alone

I’m alone, yet not alone
God’s the light that will guide me home
With His love and tenderness
Leading through the wilderness
And wherever I may roam
I’m alone, yet not alone

I will not be bent in fear
He’s the refuge I know is near
In His strength I find my own
By His faithfulness He’s shown
That so mighty is His shield
All His love is now revealed

When my steps are lost
And desperate for a guide
I can feel his touch
A soothing presence by my side

Alone, yet not alone
Not forsaken when on my own
I can lean upon His arm
And be lifted up from harm
If I stumble, or if I’m thrown
I’m alone, yet not alone

When my steps are lost
And desperate for a guide
I can feel his touch
A soothing presence by my side

By my side!

He has bound me with His love
Watchful angels look from above
Every evil can be braved
For I know I will be saved
Never frightened on my own
I’m alone, yet not alone

I’m alone, yet not alone

May God have mercy on us all as we wait upon Him…

For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? (Rom 8:24)

Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; (Titus 2:13)

Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; (1Pet 1:13)
