Can I ask you to read that again? In fact, maybe it would be good to read it out loud to ourselves over and over again before we go into each day, until the wonderful truth of it soaks into our spirit and brings the peace we so need in our everyday world.😊
It’s only ten words but they speak volumes. God is reminding us that He - the One who flung stars into space, who speaks worlds into being, who upholds the universe, including you and me, by the power of His word, who sent His Son into our world to die in our place, the One whose love never fails - He is with us.
The God of Hope is with us. The God of Joy, of Love and Peace is with us. It makes no difference where we go, or who else we’re with, or whether we’re alone, we can know God is with us.
Just knowing that makes all the difference in the world because we have the most wonderful, most powerful, most loving Being by our side and actually in us, so we’re never ever alone.
Let’s enter His presence with thanksgiving in our hearts, let’s enter His courts with praise today because as long as He is with us we don’t need to be afraid. God’s love casts out all fear because He’s our Strong Tower, our security. How blessed we are.😊
So just take a minute and read that verse again and as we walk towards Christmas, let it quiet your spirit today and every day. Emmanuel - God with us. God loves us. Thank You Lord. Amen.
