You Are Not Alone
You Are Not Alone
You are not alone–
For God is with you.
You are not defenseless–
For God is your protector.
You are not inadequate–
For God is your sufficiency.
You are not useless–
For God has a purpose for your life.
You are not worthless–
For God sent His Son to die for you.
You are not without hope–
For God has a place prepared for you.
You are not unloved–
For God loves you with an everlasting love.
You are not rejected, or abandoned–
For God calls you His own.
“I will never fail you. I will never abandon you.” So we can say with confidence,
“The Lord is my helper, so I will have no fear. What can mere people do to me?”
Hebrews 13:5 NLT
Thank you. It is knowing who God is that truly strengthens, comforts, and ministers in the midst of a trial. It is the most meaningful to know Him.
This is so wonderful, Roy! May God bless you and continue to use you for His honor and glory. Amen.
Thank you Roy!

Thank you for this. You will never know how I needed this right at the very moment it came over my computer.
Thank u 4 this message, I really needed this,I have been bedridden almost 6 years. At 39 years old i have suffrerd with an uncurable illness,and so many times ive just wanted 2 give up,but i havnt,I keep beleiving and will continue 2 believe that my LORD will heal my body and my mothers,Please pray 4 my mom & me any 1 that will.GOD BLESS U ALL,Deb
Thank you so much for this . . . I had just finished emailing a distant friend, and after telling him about my difficulties with finding nursing care for my Mom, commented, “I feel so alone in all this.”
I then logged off, and saw your subject line, “You are not alone.” I appreciate the reminder. God bless you!
Thank you for this timely reminder, sometimes we forget going on our feelings and not by the facts of His promises.

Good words…all true. This I know in my mind. However, some seasons are so dark, you can’t feel them, or see light in any direction. It’s times like these when words alone are not enough. When life leaves you physically alone for the majority of the time, knowing God is with you is nice, but to feel the touch and see face to face caring of another becomes more necessary than many realize. It’s very difficult to depend on those promises of God, when there’s very little tangible evidence. I don’t turn away from Him, my mind knows He’s not turned away from me, but my heart doesn’t know it.
Thank You for sharing ihis Roy,
It seems the Lord, always has something to say to you, in perfect timing.
My father just went to rest with the Lord!!!
I really needed to read this beiutiful poem you shared. Sometimes people go on forgetting GOD,and think they can do better. We know different!!!!
They forget Hebrews 13:5 NLT. I know im not alone today, My father is not alone, all you have to do is just Belive. You will never be alone again…
Thanks and God Bless… Min. Lou
This came at a good time for me too. I appreciate hearing this truth. Thank you. And may GOD continue to bless others through you.
I love how God counters everything that the enemy tries to tell us. Thank you for strengthening us in Jesus today!
Blessings, deb
Thank you for the perfect words at just the right time.
God bless
Thank you so much for this. I needed this in the worst way tonite. Thank you for the reminders of what I am not and what God is! Soli Deo Gloria!!
All day. my mind has been thinking what constitutes abandonment? Then this came in my email. A loving reminder from my Lord that I am not alone… Thank you for sending this. I am really struggling at this time in my life, though I know Jesus will never leave me or forsake me. I do have to keep looking up…
God is good.
Knowing who you are in Christ is very important. I don’t think many christians realize the enormity of that.
Thanks so much for being in my inbox and reminding me on this very dark day that there is light in Christ. I know for me when depression starts to settle I can either give in, or fight and today your God inspired words helped me fight! May God bless you and continue to inspire many through your writting.
Wow Praise God for such wonderful reminder in our life daily. Thank you very much for brightening my day today.
Some times to understand God’s purpose in life is difficult, yet, when things happen in His own perfect time I realize His REAL AND DEFINITE PURPOSE for me is real and true. He is my everything.
Thanks for the wonderful and comforting lines from God through your ministry.
God’s blessings be upon you.

Thank you Roy for this beautiful reflection how important for us to realise we are not alone, so easy to forget in times of distress. May the Lord bless you and your ministry.
Thanks for this message! I am serving the Lord in south east asia and our group is facing an extremely difficult experience. At times it feels like we are alone. God seems silent. We feel so helpless. The situation feels like its going from bad to worse. This devotional was another of God’s messages to me that give me strength to face another day and at times even just another hour. Thank you for being used by Him to encourage others.
This is the morning of my brother’s funeral and it is a real word from the Lord for me. Such comfort.
Thank you.
Thank you so much..It came at the right time.. few minutes back i was crying because of the feeling that iam alone..GOD BLESS YOU
Thank you for this message
I have just been thinking about what to prepare for the next Ladies’ session I lead on Wednesday. If I may, I would like to use this poem and verse as several of them live alone or are frail and it seems so apt.
Its funny sometimes the way God works. Just when we think we are alone, He brings something to us, maybe a word, a hug from a friend, or something else to remind us tha we are not alone, but He ia always there with us even when we don’t feel it.
I’m going through avery trying period in my life, and i’m so far away from my family. I’ve cried and asked God why He allowed what happened to happen, but i’m getting no answers yet! One thing i do know for sure is that He is aware of all that is going on, and He is taking me through it.
Roy’s word today, was just timely, cos that the fiest thing that popped up on my screen when i opened the computer. God is only confirming to me what i prayed about this morning, That He will never leave me or forsake me.
This is so encouraging! I’m currently going through chemo treatments for breast cancer. I had BC also in 2006 but didn’t have to have treatments. I have had 2 mastectomies and the treatments begin to take a toll on my emotions and my body. I have 6 more treatments to go, but I know God is in control and He uses people like you and your encouragement to reinforce His Power, Love and Mercy and Grace. Thank you so much for being an “encourager” of the Lord.
What a wonderful reminder of how much the savior loves us!
My husband and I are talking divorce. I don’t have any family. I’m 60 years old and so afraid to start over. I get through the days on my knees. Five minutes at a time.
Thanks so much for your message even though I am blubbering like a baby right this minute. Someone else understands this pain and believes as I do that God is the only way I’ll get through it.
thank you for this reminder that we are not alone, even though there are times we feel this way.
Just the word of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ that is the sword i needed this day. Thank You Jesus!
Dear Roy and Dayspring staff,
Thank you for this beautiful encouragement. Jesus is with us…now and forever. We truly are not alone.
Debbie Holbrook, I’m praying for healing for you and your Mom.
God bless all,
Maria
I was so touched by this…I am in that point of slowly thinking about suicide because I have been out of employment for almost two years now and my unemployment benefit stopped. I’m scared that before 2010 is over, we might be in foreclosure. I know I am not alone in this kind of situation and my case is not unique but I can not find solace in that line of thought. Somehow, when I read these lines, it gave me back the strenght and hope that GOD is still out there….Hopefully, it will not be too late and I would be able to find a job. God have mercy.
thank you just wakeing up. i need it that. god bless you
Such amazing and comforting words…thank you! Do you have this as a plaque or framed poster? I could use something like this for my home. God bless.
Thank you for the timely message.It spoke to me at a time when I really needed to hear it.May the Lord bless you and continue to use you for His glory.
“You Are Not Alone” comes at a very special time. My mother has been on my mind a great deal. she and I are separated by nearly coast to coast and she lives alone with my brother and his family not far away. She has given up on God many years ago and I would love to share this message with her however she does not have a computer and I have no printer. How may I go about sending this to her? Thank you for this meeting in the meadow.

Thanks a lot for this message.It came when I just finished fighting back tears from rolling down my cheeks.You are such a blessing. By Folake
The Lord is wise, He knows what we need, He had been searched for me, He won’t fail, thank you Lord for use Roy to reminding me who you are and what is your purpose in my life.
Hi Roy,
Thank-You for inspiring me and reminding me of God’s truth. Even though we feel alone we are never left on our own. We or I just need to hang on to God’s Promises in His word. IKings 8:56
God Bless Les
God is so powerful and so comforting all the time.
It’s such a blessing that Dayspring has this page available for public. It’s very beautiful and tells me that there is love not just from Him but from His people.
What you wrote seems like God’s particulare boost for me in my right now situation. Praise God!
A big thank you to you
What a wonderful reminder, which we all need!
Thank you for sharing your gift with all of us!
Great words of encouragement.I will definitely share this, it will be a blessing to others as it was to me. Thank you so much Mr. Roy.
I found it is so easy to be lost in routine life, and forget how special I am in Father’s eyes. It’s really a good reminder of who I am. Thanks.
Two nights ago I sms my friends asking them to pray for me cos I feel so alone. Amazing how much God cares for me that He has caused you to remind me that I am not really alone. Praise Him.
thanks to the God’s word Help to change my life, then shaer mmessage 4 my friend. Thanks again From raj
I keep on telling myself that I’m alone and will nvr find happiness.I thought I was lost but now I’m found. Lord, please be with me all the time. I need you the most in my LIFE.
thank you for the beautiful thought, i really needed to be reminded that our God is always with us and will see us throught all the dark times.
Having just lost a dear friend and soul sister, this has been a true blessing. God bless you and thank you so much for the ‘reminder’ that we are never really alone,not at any time, especially not in the throes of grief for we have His assurance that He has us firmly in the palm of his hand.
Thank You so much!
I just found In The Meadow and I am so glad I did. God has been trying to let me know that I am not alone in so many ways. Circumstances in my life seem overwhelming right now, but I know God is with me. I asked Him recently for a place of safety and rest. In The Meadow is such an answer to prayer. I thank God that He has obviously given you the gift of encouragement. May you perceive God’s caring Presence in times you really need Him just as as you have allowed His love to encourage others through you.
very challening and meaningful, i tried to translate into our language most probbly i shall hang it on the wall
God bless

I have one encouraging devotion taken from Meet Me in the Meadow Devotional that I carry with me and reread every day. I have been trying to purchase this devotional,both for myself and for my sister, but cannot find it anywhere. Is it still available?
Lord: thank You for Your protection You always provide me.
