"...And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
Matthew 28:20
Today was hectic to say the least. It seems like things just keep piling up and I don't know how to handle it. Even as I slept last night I was making todo lists. I felt so far from the Father. Like so many tasks were keeping us apart. Jesus Calling was EXACTLY what I needed today. Do any of you read that devotional? It can only be the Spirit speaking through that book. It is on point in so many circumstances.
This is what it said today:
I am always available to you. Once you have trusted Me as your Savior, I never distance Myself from you. Sometimes you may feel distant from Me. Recognize that as feeling; do not confuse it with reality. The Bible is full of My promises to be with you always. As I assured Jacob, when he was journeying away from home into unknown places. I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go. My last recorded promise to My followers was: Surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age. Let these assurances of My continual Presence fill you with Joy and Peace. No matter what you may lose in this life, you can never lose your relationship with Me.
Isaiah 54:10; Genesis 28:15; Matthew 28:20
(Devotional from September 10. My underlining.)
Our Lord is NEVER far from us. Don't let Satan fool you.
(I just learned that if you don't have the book you can still read the devotionals on the blog here)
The weather in Columbia has been beautiful lately. We are getting tiny glimpses of Fall. I will still be wearing shorts for a while, though. This is an outfit adapted for a South Carolina Fall.
