Learn to enjoy His presence

 For God alone my soul waits in silence; from him comes my salvation. He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be greatly shaken.

For God alone, O my soul, wait in silence, for my hope is from him.

He only is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be shaken.

On God rests my salvation and my glory; my mighty rock, my refuge is God. Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your heart before him; God is a refuge for us. 

Psalm 62

We are continuing with our theme of learning to be in our Father’s presence at all times. In all circumstances acknowledging Him for He cares for us. Enjoy being in His presence, open your heart and pour out your heart in His presence.

We began this year committing ourselves to being still and knowing that He is Lord. 

Here is a reminder.

Our Father reconciled us to Himself in His Son.

In this new year

•  may we continually renew our hope and remember our redeemer lives.

• may we stop and remind ourselves of who our Father is

• May we remind ourselves we are not alone the Father has give us a Helper, the Holy Spirit.

Truly God is my strength and portion forever

 I was so foolish and ignorant—I must have seemed like a senseless animal to you.

Yet I still belong to you; you hold my right hand.

You guide me with your counsel, leading me to a glorious destiny.

Whom have I in heaven but you? I desire you more than anything on earth.

My health may fail, and my spirit may grow weak, but God remains the strength of my heart; he is mine forever.

But as for me, how good it is to be near God!

I have made the Sovereign Lord my shelter, and I will tell everyone about the wonderful things you do.

Psalm 78

How foolish we can be at times, when we take our eyes away from our Father and who He is. Last Sunday I was challenged and encouraged by the message about learning to live in the presence of God. 

Life brings challenges and triumph, our response no matter the circumstance is to look to Him and see His goodness towards us and tell of His works. Our Father walks us through the darkest moments and even when we rejoice He is there with us. We are never abandoned.

Truly Gods presence is our strength and portion forever.
