I am really, really, really liking Sarah Young's Jesus Calling. The perspective that she is writing comes from God talking to you directly. What a beautiful interaction that she must have had with the Father to write these daily devotions. Take a look at this one from July 18th. For those of you that do not know Jesus....maybe this will help understand this Savior that I talk about so frequently. HE is ALIVE and WELL and is seeking you daily, every moment of your being.
"I AM nearer than you think, richly present in all your moments. You are connected to Me by Love-bonds that nothing can sever. However, you may sometimes feel alone, because your union with Me is invisible. Ask Me to open your eyes, so that you can find Me everywhere. The more aware you are of My Presence, the safer you feel. This is not some sort of escape from reality; it is tuning in to ultimate reality. I am far more Real than the world you can see, hear and touch. Faith is the confirmation of things we do not see and the conviction of their reality, perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses.
Scripture follow up:
"God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.'For in him we live and move and have; our being.' As some of your own poets have said, 'We are his offspring.'" -Acts 17:27-28
"Now faith is the assurance of things we hope for, being the proof of things we do not see and the conviction of their reality."-Hebrews 11:1 AMP
All of you....you are not alone. The Savior is standing at the door waiting for you to open it and say come in to my heart. He loves you! He wants to know you! He LOVES YOU when you feel that no one else understands you....or that you feel all alone in this world. Cling to him. Run to Him and He will forever grow your inner most being to loving something so profound and lovely and praise worthy.
