God is always with you. He never leaves us. The deceiver will try to trick us, saying He has left, but in truth, it is usually we who have strayed. Start the new year knowing He is with you no matter what, and do not deviate from that truth. Isaiah 43:2 "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through fire, you will not be scorched, Nor will the flame burn you.
