Knock. Knock. Who’s there?

I certainly felt all alone. I mean, no one else was around. Just me in the house. There are times when all alone can feel lonely. I recently visited some dear friends and the camaraderie of our time together filled me with such joy! Goodness, how wonderful to be with loved ones! Laughing and loving life…

Then there are those other times. Those nothing to do, sitting around in the house times. All alone. But that’s not entirely true. Because as I sat on the porch…

A gentle breeze blew across my face (could it be… a kiss from God?)

The sun warmed a spot on my arm (God’s hand resting on mine?)

A bird’s tweet, tweet, tweet (He will rejoice over you with singing.  - Zephaniah 3:17)

A cool, refreshing glass within arm’s reach (you will thirst no more. - John 4:14)

A freshly made tuna sandwich (and all ate and were satisfied.  - Matthew 14:20)

If you seek Me you will find Me… (Jeremiah 29:13)

Yes, it can certainly feel like I’m all alone. But it can also feel like I’m in His presence. And that sure is a comforting feeling. Not alone at all. Nope. And to think I might have missed it, had I not been - alone.

So wherever you find yourself, the next time you feel all alone and lonely… look around. Use all your senses. You will find God right there with you. You will…

Taste and see. His promise is true. I am with you always… and all ways. (Matthew 28:20)

Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with Me. (Revelation 3:20)

That warmth you feel from the sun… could it be…?
