When we pass through the trials of life, it is possible to feel very alone, particularly at those times when no one is standing with us. At such times it is good to remember that in all these trials God is with us. This is the invisible reality. Whatever the threat in our visible or outward circumstances, there is a realm our physical eyes cannot see – the spirit realm, and in that realm, we are not alone, but we are standing with the Lord Jesus Christ, the Good Shepherd, and we are surrounded by armies of angels that do His will and are working night and day on our behalf in the cause of God’s great eternal plan. When our eyes are opened to the spirit realm, everything starts to look very different. Jesus said, “I am with you always, even to the end of the age” (Matthew 28:20). He said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you” (Hebrews 13:5).
