For several years Public Television has chronicled the story of Dick Proenneke, a man who lived alone in the wilderness for over thirty years.<\/p>\n<p>I have to confess that I love watching this program over and over again. It is not that I would like to be alone like Dick, but I am intrigued by the creative ways he used the resources around him to survive.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to being impressed by Dick\u2019s resourcefulness, I also became aware of something else\u2014he was not totally isolated. There was a bush pilot who made trips into Dick\u2019s remote location to deliver supplies and mail. I can only imagine the joy he must have felt in receiving mail from his family in California.<\/p>\n<p>We do not have to be isolated in a wilderness like Dick Proenneke to feel alone. We can feel alone even when we are surrounded by a multitude of people. Regardless of where we might be or who might be around us, according to our Scripture for today we are never alone. Not only is the Lord with us at all times, He has promised to give us strength and to uphold us.
