Being present with God...

"Keep yourselves in God's love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life."
~ Jude 21
There are so many things in our lives that can cause us to become anxious. Our relationship with God can become both distant and difficult when issues become great.

It's like our health. If you continually surround yourself with unhealthy situations, then you will begin to exhibit signs of the environment.

The love and mercy of God are available for all. God's relationship with each of us involves our ability to live in that mercy and love.  Sometimes it takes a situation to cause us to stop and evaluate that relationship.

The challenges that we face can impede that presence if we are not willing to stop and wait. When we don't evaluate and meditate.

The greatest block in our spiritual life is often ourselves. We get so involved in attempting to overcome tremendous hurdles that we fail to invite God to be present.  We are reminded to invite God to always be present in a relationship that is driven by God's love for us.

Stay in God's grip!
