His Powerful Presence

Jesus announced that “in the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world” (John 16:33). And He went on to urge His followers — including you — not to worry, because He will be with you. This fact, truth, and promise, all rolled into one, should bolster your courage.

Whether a tragedy or disaster or shock strikes during your day, and you feel like your life is reeling, you are never alone. In spite of the struggles you will experience, Jesus is always with you and will never abandon you. The Lord tells us through His word, “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified…for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you” (Deuteronomy 31:6).

Your pre­cious, omnipresent Savior will go with you all the way through each trial…and all the way through life. The most effective and power­ful way you can reflect the heart of Jesus is to entrust yourself into His capable hands. Let His confidence infuse you with the courage to face life boldly as you live in and for Jesus Christ. Because your ultimate victory has already been won by Christ, you can live in courage as you trust Him even in the worst of times.

Question: Have you felt His presence in a scary situation? Share your experiences with others, so we can grow in faith!

The truth is, my thoughts pulled me down so far that, in private, tears regularly streamed down my face. Are you constantly thinking negative thoughts? Being a woman after God’s own heart is all about “minding your mind.”

God’s Purpose is in the Present

As a young mother, I endeavored to “train a child in the way he should go,” so that “when he is old he will not depart from it” (Proverbs 22:6). A decade later, however, I wasn’t reaping the results I had expected. Angrily, I said to God, “But this isn’t the way it was supposed to be! This isn’t the way it went for this family here or that family over there. And this isn’t the way it was supposed to be for my family!”
