“Is there ever a time when I AM not with you?

Is there ever a time when I don’t see you, or hear you?

Haven’t I called you by name?” says the LORD.

“Times have gone by when I have stretched forth My hand and My heart to you while you have taken a wrong road, taken a wrong turn that I did not desire for you.

I did not turn away from you, but My heart burned in compassion for you to return.

There is nothing that I can’t do for you; to heal you, restore you, to own for you the times when you would not acknowledge My hand upon your life.

But I have kept My hand upon you so you will realize just how far, and how long I have been watching for the day when My Love for you will find its way in to your broken heart.

I have not left you.

I have not forgotten you.

I have never forsaken you.

When you return to Me, you will see.

When you return to Me, you will know Me.

When you return to Me, you will realize not only how far you went from Me, but you will realize how far I have come alongside you; never leaving you behind.”
