There have been times when my life looked a lot more like a country song than a Believer’s Christian walk. It was during those times when I clung to God as if my life depended on Him. Because, my life does depend on Him.
I gave up the false belief in my own strength a long time ago and I knew I couldn’t do anything worthwhile on my own. Some of the time that I was clinging to Him, I couldn’t hear Him nor feel Him. Sometimes I doubted, but I had to put my faith in His word:
- He was with me in the valley of the shadow of death.
- He would never leave me or abandon me.
- that if I would seek Him I would find Him
- that He was always with me.
- the Holy Spirit was my Helper and comforter.
- that His word could not fail
Many see me as an independent woman, but I am not. I just depend on God first and last and in between, while I am trying to be and do all that He has created me to be and do. “Step by step He leads me, and I will follow Him all of my days.”
