God’s presence is always with you, but it is something we need to practice. Train yourself to be aware that He is there, right by your side. When you wake up in the morning He is there. He’s there in everyday tasks and chores. He’s there when you are tempted to do wrong. He doesn’t leave you even when you leave Him. He’s waiting right by your side for you to talk to Him, cry out to Him, share your heart with Him.
We fail to realize that He is also for us, not against us! Usually our shame and guilt keep us from turning to Him. But nothing is ever hidden from Him. He knows you better than you know yourself. AND He knows what you need more than you do. God wants to help, not turn away from you.
Life is hard. But God is good. We can rely on Him to provide what we need. It’s His strength that He will provide, It’s His wisdom that He will give.
We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 2 Corinthians 4:8-9
“But He said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.” – 2 Corinthians 12:9
God can work through our weakness, struggles, and triumphs for our good and His glory. HE IS WITH YOU AND HE IS FOR YOU!
