“Behold, an hour is coming, and has already come, for you to be scattered, each to his own home, and to leave Me alone; and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.” (John 16:32)
Being left alone is one of the most painful experiences in life. It becomes even more unbearable when those whom we deeply trust—our relatives, friends, and those we believed would always stand with us—walk away from us in times of suffering. In some families, during seasons of hardship, separation arises even between husband and wife. In many households, aged parents are left to live in loneliness.
Job’s wife, who once enjoyed all the riches along with Job, spoke harshly when suffering entered his life. She said to him,
“Do you still hold fast your integrity? Curse God and die!” (Job 2:9)
In other words, it was as if she was saying, “Why should you still live? Just give up and die.”
Yes, beloved, we cannot say that everyone who stays with us during joyful times will also remain with us during times of pain. The same happened in the life of our Lord Jesus Christ. The disciples who ate and slept with Him ran away in different directions when trouble came. Jesus Christ knew this beforehand. That is why He prophetically said,
“You will be scattered, each to his own home, and leave Me alone.”
However, our Lord Jesus Christ never abandoned His relationship with the Father. God the Father was always with Him. Therefore, He confidently declared,
“Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.” It was this abiding presence of the Father that gave Him the strength to endure suffering.
Today, this stands as a powerful lesson for our lives. At present, we may be in a good situation, surrounded by friends and relatives. But that will not last forever. A season of loneliness comes to everyone at some point in life. Even husbands and wives who live in unity are separated by loneliness when one of them passes away.
Yes, beloved, God alone is the One who never leaves us abandoned. Whether in joy or in sorrow, He remains with us. Because the Lord Jesus lived in fellowship with the Father, He was never truly alone. In the same way, let us strengthen our relationship with God and depend on Him. Then, even in situations where we are forsaken by people, we will be able to live courageously, declaring:
“I am not alone; the Lord Jesus Christ is with me.”
