Romans 8:35, 37—Who will separate us from the love of
Christ? Will hardship, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or
peril, or sword? No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through
him who loved us.
In the midst of our daily lives, it can sometimes be
difficult to feel God’s presence all around us.
Emotions like fear, worry, anxiety, relief, elation, and even happiness
can distract us from relying on God and cause us to feel utterly alone or
solely responsible for what is happening in our lives. But God never changes. He never leaves. He never fails. We are the mercurial ones who forget to look
up. We are the ones who put up walls and
wear blinders to His presence. What
great comfort we can take in knowing that when life starts to make us feel
separated, that God will never leave.
That is precisely when He scoops us up and cares for us exactly how we
need.
Today as you pray and meditate on His Word, praise God for
his unwavering ways. Thank Him for
caring for you and carrying you through your trials. Offer your worries, fears, joys, and cares to
Him, and recommit your focus on Jesus as your Lord and Savior.
