JUST THIS spring, my parents' divorce was final. It was really a weird feeling. I felt that a part of me was gone. My dad had left. He had always been there for thirteen years, and now, suddenly, he wasn't there anymore. I felt let down and alone.

But I admire my mom for being so strong. Her husband of nineteen years left and she had to turn to the Lord for strength. I can't imagine how she felt.

See, this is the real difference between people and God. People sometimes disappoint us. But God is constantly with us. He loves and cares for us.

Like He says, "Just as I have been with Moses, I will be with you; I will not fail you or forsake you" (Joshua 1:5).

Maybe you have had a bad day at school or work; maybe people are making fun of you, or maybe you feel that no one even cares about you. Just remember that God will always be here for you, and He will never leave you.
