In His Presence
What is it like to be in God's presence?
Last night while I was driving home from Blaketown, I was listening to a hymn tune arrangement of "It is Well with my Soul" which appears on the newly recorded cd by the Newfoundland East Divisional Youth Band. At the moment when it came on I was reflecting on the many wonders of God as I looked out on the beautiful red sky. I could feel God's presence at that moment. As I was turning the corner by the South Dildo fishplant, the climax of the music happened and there in front of me was the most incredible sunset that I have seen in years. God's presence was forever real! It just proved to me how glorious God is.
Well, when we strive to live in God's presence everyday of our lives, life becomes amazing. I am not saying that everything is perfect because it is not but I am saying that life is peaceful when God is right at your side. Living in God's presence allows you to be you. Isn't God amazing. If we continuously focus upward to Him and fully rely on God you will see life from a totally different viewpoint. The many elements of life will seem that more amazing and beautiful. Isn't He amazing?
I just pray that Hebrews 12:2 will come alive for many people as it has for me and Kim Chan since working in North Carolina at CMA in 2004. It follows me wherever I go...
Hebrews 12:2 states: Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfector of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of God.
So today... live in God's presence as you fix your eyes upon Him.
