I dunno. Had kept this devotional with me for some time now, wanting to post it, but it just doesn't come to pass, until today. I guess I needed that nudging from Him, a reminder.
And I can only say I'm humbled and grateful that He chose to do it through some kind souls, who chose to take the trouble to show care and concern. It means alot, and I really appreciate it. Really. Thank you.
Perhaps....
....it isn't that quiet afterall...

Never Alone
“I will . . .not forsake My people.”
1 Kings 6:13 NKJV
The Lord is with us. And, since the Lord is near, everything is different. Everything!
You may be facing death, but you aren’t facing death alone; the Lord is with you. You may be facing unemployment, but you aren’t facing unemployment alone; the Lord is with you. You may be facing marital struggles, but you aren’t facing them alone; the Lord is with you. You may be facing debt, but you aren’t facing debt alone; the Lord is with you.
Underline these words: You are not alone.
Your family may turn against you, but God won’t. Your friends may betray you, but God won’t. You may feel alone in the wilderness, but you are not. He is with you.

[Other Side Of The Day] - Bebo Norman
Was it You who spoke the earth to me
And wrapped it all in mystery for the taking
For the taking?
Is it You who turned away me soul
From evidence so beautiful that you gave me
That you gave me?
When I'm falling in the shadows of the Son
Only You remain, the hope of what's to come.
'Cause on a night like tonight
You bring me to life
And remind me there's another side of day.
Where I will see all that You are
More than a sky full of stars
And the worries of this world will fall away
On the other side of day.
Is it time that gets the best of us,
Reminding all the rest of us that it's fading
That it's fading?
Oh, but you still hold the hands of time
And pave the way to Paradise.
Can you take me, can you take me?
'Cause the world is just a shadow of the Son
Only You remain, the hope of what's to come.
We're all in love alone
Finally make it home
To a world of wonder
And love is not a lie
And all you seek you'll find
Your search is finally over.
'Cause on a night like tonight
You bring me to life
And remind me there's another side of day.
Where I will see all that You are
More than a sky full of stars
And the worries of this world will fall away
On the other side of day.
Remind me...that there's still an other side of day, in You
