Omnipresent God

“The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.  Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged”- Deuteronomy 31:8
“Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name, you are mine.  When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you.  When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned, the flames will not set you ablaze.”- Isaiah 42:1b-2

Father, thank you for reminding me of your presence, guidance and care that you show all the time.  Thank you for being the one who I can always rely on, the one who is the same anytime and anywhere. Thank you for walking alongside with me through trials and triumphs.

This is particularly encouraging to know when settling to a new place and adjusting to new community can get a little overwhelming.  I am glad to know that I can find stability in the Lord who is always available and His faithfulness is unchanging.  I am also grateful for knowing that God is journeying with me through the highs and lows, and in Him I can overcome with the victory that can be found in Him.

“Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today...The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still”- Exodus 14:13-14
