I AM WITH YOU AND FOR YOU, your constant Companion and Provider. The question is whether you are with Me and for Me. Though I never leave you, you can essentially "leave" Me by ignoring Me: thinking or acting as if I am not with you. When you feel distance in our relationship, you know where the problem lies. My Love for you is constant; I am the same yesterday, today and forever. It is you who change like shifting sand, letting circumstances toss you this way and that.
When you feel far from Me, whisper My Name. This simple act, done in childlike faith, opens your heart to My Presence. Speak to Me in love-tones; prepare to receive My Love, which flows eternally from the cross. I am delighted when you open yourself to My loving Presence.

(Jesus Calling / Sarah Young)
Genesis 28:15 - "I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go"
ReplyDeleteRomans 8:31 - "What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?"
Do you ever think that because you are not good enough for God, he will not save you? Do you ever feel that salvation is for everyone else but you? If God gave his Son for you, he isn't going to hold back the gift of salvation for you. He isn't going to condemn you. He will not withhold anything you need to live for him!
