Are You There?




When God called Mosses to lead His people out of Egypt, He didn't promise him power. Instead, He promised His presence: I will be with you. In Jesus's last words to His disciples before His crucifixion, He also promised God's eternal presence, which they would receive through the Holy Spirit.

There are many things God could give us to help us through life's challenges, such as material comfort, healing or immediate solutions to our problems. Sometimes He does. But the best gift He gives is Himself. This is the greatest comfort we have; whatever happens in life, He will be with us; He will never leave nor forsake us.

Lord, thank You for the wonderful promise that You'll be with me always. In the midst of life's crisis and routines, may I learn to rely on Your presence, knowing You are walking with me.
