Though None Go With Me
Do you ever find yourself singing, “Though none go with me, still I will follow … but I really hope some go with me”? If I’m honest, that’s how I would have written the song but I’ve learned that, no matter what decisions you make in life, even ones you see as Biblical decisions, there will be times you have to stand alone. Your closest friends may think you’re crazy and beginning to go a bit overboard in your convictions that they will begin to withdraw or will try to convince you that what you believe God spoke to you wasn’t God at all. Those are the moments you have to draw near to God and say boldly, “If it seem evil to you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom you will serve. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” (Joshua 24:15).
Loneliness is never fun but I’ve learned that it’s often in the lonely times that we are more aware that we are never alone. Recently, I’ve started thanking God for His kindness in never leaving me. I don’t know how I would get through life without Him but I do know I wouldn’t do it very well. I pray that, with every decision I make in life, none would be based on what others think I should do but I pray that I will be constantly focused on what God desires me to do. Others may consider me a fool but if God is pleased with me, it really doesn’t matter what others think. His opinion’s all that matters. Because of this, I can truly say, “Though none go with me, still I will follow. I’ll go with Him, with Him ALL THE WAY!”
