God Will Never Leave You Alone
by Max Lucado, from Grace for the Moment Devotional Journal

The Son of Man came to find lost people and save them. - Luke 19:10

Our God is the God who follows.

Have you sensed Him following you? He is the one who came to seek and save the lost. Have you sensed Him seeking you?

Have you felt His presence through the kindness of a stranger? Through the majesty of a sunset or the mystery of romance? Through the question of a child or the commitment of a spouse? Through a word well spoken or a touch well timed, have you sensed Him?...

God gives us Himself.

Even when we choose our hovel over His house and our trash over His grace, still He follows. Never forcing us. Never leaving us. Patiently persistent. Faithfully present. He uses all His power to convince us that He is who He is and He can be trusted to lead us home.

How secure are you in the truth that God will never leave you alone? Have you felt God following you? Have you felt His faithful presence through other people, nature, a song, or other circumstance?
