Walk Alone

You are born alone, and you die alone. Yet, how we fight against this reality. 

Before you begin a deeper walk with God, know that that walk will be a lonely one. The closer you get to God, the further you'll be from people.

Leonard Ravenhill said it well:
Great eagles fly alone; great lions hunt alone; great souls walk alone-alone with God. Such loneliness is hard to endure, and impossible to enjoy unless God accompanies them. Prophets are lone men; they walk alone, pray alone and God makes them alone.
