After a big awakening from God the passed few days, I just discovered I am on a journey by myself.
In one week everything I knew, the lifestyle I understood has been swept away. I have been going through some tough turmoil the last weeks. With two deaths in the family, the struggles my parents have been going through, the sudden revelation that some friends were taking advantage of me, or some have turned their backs on me when I cried out for advice.
Last night for the first time in a long time, I cried myself to sleep. For the first time, I felt no one was there when I needed them. Even though my sister is my best friend, she could not understand my Christian side. I was always there for everyone else, but was slammed against the wall when my turn came.

I felt Satan laughing, "Everyone abandoned you!" I believed him. No one was around that I needed. With family that can't understand or friends with slammed doors, I collapsed just in sudden darkness. In the midst of it all, only One voice spoke and I heard Jesus saying, "I am here. I am still here for you."
His simple words, "I will never leave you. I will never forsake you." I am now understanding that meaning.
God showed me that I cannot depend on family and friends anymore to be there for me, only Christ is there for me.

Every direction I turn to actually speak with family or friends, everything feels gone. Empty in other words.

Though now I am on a very long journey by myself with Christ. His true divine purpose. Everything was torn away from me, so I realize He won't abandon me. I am afraid because I guess I always had people around to help me, I just have Jesus now. A week ago I would of never thought that this could happen to me.
I don't think the life I knew before will come back. I don't expect it. My journey can be a short, or long one.

So I was wondering if anyone could give me good scripture on my long journey?

The Lord today gave me a wonderful blessing, a pair of beautiful songbirds that sing so breathtakingly. With them, the tears have stopped and they have made me smile. I have forgotten about what has happened, but my attention is now on Christ.


I would just need strong scripture to help me out on this journey.
