Never Alone
“Never Alone.” That’s a phrase repeated over and over in one of my favourite book series, The Door Within. It’s a reminder that servants of the King are never alone in any task they undertake for His glory. I know that it’s understood that God is always with us, but I’d never seen that specific phrase anywhere other than that series before I read Barth. He takes it more in depth; explains the weight behind those two words. Behind “Never Alone” is the unconditional and absolute promise that God has your back no matter what happens. That you are always in His company no matter where you are. It’s something that we’ve always been told in church, that God is always with us and that He sees everything, but sometimes it takes a fresh voice to make you really think about something. So, never alone.
P.S. I commented on Will's "Cohesion"

Never alone, that is an amazing thought. I agree with you. Sometimes it takes hearing it in another way or someone else saying it for us to re-grasp the incredible truth that holds for believers. Even with earthly people fail us Christ is always with us. He never leaves us nor forsakes us. Praise His name!
