“GOD IS WITH YOU, watching over you constantly. The LORD is Emmanuel (God with you); GOD’S Presence enfolds you in radiant Love. Nothing, including the brightest blessings and the darkest trials, can separate you from GOD. Some of GOD’S children find HIM more readily during dark times, when difficulties force them to depend on The LORD. Others feel closer to GOD when their lives are filled with good things. They respond with thanksgiving and praise, thus opening wide the door to The LORD’S Presence. GOD knows precisely what you need to draw nearer to HIM. Go through each day looking for what Tee LORD has prepared for you. Accept every event as GOD’S hand-tailored provision for your needs. When you view your life this way, the most reasonable response is to be thankful. Do not reject any of The LORD’S gifts; find GOD in every situation.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
“The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel”—which means, “God with us.” MATTHEW 1 : 23
So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness. COLOSSIANS 2 : 6 – 7
Prayer: Lord I overflow with thankfulness for despite problems in this life, this is not my true home. Help me to be rooted and built up in Christ, strengthened in my faith, and overflowing with thankfulness today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
