“Seek the Lord while he may be found, call upon him while he is near.” (Isaiah 55:6)
As I can attest from my own personal experience, it is so easy and convenient to blame God for not being around and helping us in the midst our most challenging situations.
Ah, but how wrong that understanding was. The Lord is always with us and at our side. He is there guiding us, directing us, comforting us, supporting us, strengthening us, and breathing the very life into us each day. He touches our lives in so many countless ways that we cannot even fathom.
I simply pray that I might be able to be aware of the things I can, in my lowly human condition.
Call on him any time and anywhere. He is always near. Always there.
Father God, may I always be aware of your presence in my life. May I never forget that the reason I exist today is because you have willed it and breathed your life into me. Thank you, Lord, for your presence with me each and every day. Amen.
