God Is Always With Us
"The Lord replied, "My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest." -- Exodus 33:14
Moses wanted to know God was there. God had called him to lead His people and Moses wanted to make sure he wasn't alone. Moses was smart that way. He knew there was no way he could do all God asked him to do without God's Presence leading the way. Of course, Moses was a little insecure. Sounds like most of us.
The loneliest times I've ever faced have been when I didn't feel God's Presence. I don't handle that well. I know He's still there. I do. But I want to know He's there. I want to feel Him. I want to hear His voice. I want to know that He's holding on to me no matter what life throws my way.
I find great comfort in God's promise to always be with me. I don't need to fret over what tomorrow will bring. I don't need to worry about all those things I can't control. God controls it all and He's right there with me every step of the way. His Presence allows me to rest and find peace amid the turmoil that surrounds me. He's there for you too.
I'm sure Moses found strength and peace in God's promise to always be there. See, God always keeps His promises. He is morally perfect. It's difficult for us to even comprehend that. When everyone else lets us down, there He is. Wow! We can be secure in the knowledge that no matter where we go or what we face, God's Presence is with us. He is with us. And we can find rest in His arms.
