19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age. ~ Matthew 28:19-20
2,000 years ago, Jesus ascended to Heaven and now sits at the right hand of the Father. Yet, He promised His disciples, before He left, that He would be with them always. That promise wasn’t just for His disciples at that time. That promise was and is for all who serve Him. It’s a promise that is still true to this day. The LORD didn’t leave us as orphans. No, instead, He sent His own Spirit to dwell with us and in us. He Himself lives through us and intercedes on our behalf. The Father goes before us, clearing the way in His own name.
We have not been abandoned. Be encouraged; the God of this universe is with you always. He isn’t a far-off and distant God that is unreachable and inaccessible. He is the God that is close. All you have to do is call on His name, and He will answer you. Seek Him, and you will find Him. He is a God that desires to be close to His people, for His place is with His children. So, rejoice and be merry, for the LORD God is in your life, and He is doing great things for you and through you.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Rejoice In His Presence.
