Thought For Today: “God’s Presence Always Present”
No matter what happens in life, our Heavenly Father not only knows, but He is there with us all the way.
In Matthew 10:29 Jesus said, “Are not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will.” (Matthew 10:29)
In the Greek it reads, “One of them will not fall on the earth without the Father.” In other words, when it falls it is not alone, because God is with it.
In the same way when we fall, God will be with us.
To Joshua as he was about to lead Israel in Moses’ stead, the Lord said, “As I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you nor forsake you.” (Joshua 1:5b)
And in giving the Great Commandment, Jesus said, “And lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:20)
So be encouraged and cast away all fear because of God’s perfect love, in that He gave His life for us, and that His presence will never leave us, but will always be present.
