Though none go with me, I will still go.
For the past two weeks, the words have been replaying in my mind. The words define where I am in my faith walk.
My heart is decided.
I walk this journey of life with God alone.
Even when the direction seems unconventional or does not make sense to my finite mind, I will go.
I will walk in faith.
I will not lean on my own understanding, but on Truth alone.
Though I will seek wisdom and consider godly counsel, I will follow God alone.
I will seek only the validation and affirmation of God.
My heart is willing.
I will stand in my watchtower with great expectation.
I will be still and listen for the still small Voice.
I will confidently take the next right step, even if it is out of my comfort zone.
As I thumbed through the pages of a recent thrift store find, a 1940 hymnal, I discovered these powerful chorus lyrics from Jesus, I’ll Follow Thee Through:
Jesus I’ll follow, I’ll follow Thee,
Tho’ my companions and friends may be few,
Help me to pray Lord and stay in the way Lord,
I am determined to follow Thee through.
So…
Jesus, I am determined to follow Thee through.
Though none go with me, I will still go.
For we walk by faith, not by sight.
2 Corinthians 5:7
