Your Word teaches that I am in You, and You are in me. This is such a profound mystery! You are the infinite Creator and Sustainer of the universe, and I am a finite, fallen human being. Yet You and I live not only with each other but in each other. I am filled with Your fullness — flooded with You Yourself! This is a deeper, richer union than I can find in any human relationship. You know everything about me, from my deepest thoughts and feelings to the events I will encounter throughout my life. Because I belong to You, feelings of aloneness are really just an illusion. The whole earth is full of Your glorious Presence! In You I live and move and have my being. Every step I take, every word I speak, every breath I breathe — all is done in Your watchful, embracing Presence. I'm immersed in Your invisible yet ever-so-real Being! The more aware of You I am, the more alive and complete I feel. Please strengthen my awareness of Your loving Presence as I go step by step through this day. In Your watchful, loving Name, amen. On that day you will realize that I am in My Father, and you are in Me, and I am in you. — John 14:20 God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you. — Colossians 1:27 That you may be filled [through all your being] unto all the fullness of God [may have the richest measure of the divine Presence, and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself]! — Ephesians 3:19 AMPC In Him we live and move and have our being. — Acts 17:28 |

There is abundant Joy in Your Presence! |
There is abundant Joy in Your Presence! |

Steadfast Savior, Help me find Joy in the midst of brokenness. One of the hardest times for me to be joyful is when I'm dealing with multiple problems — seeking solutions but finding none — and then suddenly I'm faced with a new problem. I've found that if I focus too much on searching for solutions, I start to sink under the weight of all my difficulties. Please remind me at such times that You are present with me in the midst of my various trials. I need to trust that You're at work in my situation and that You're able to bring good out of evil. Your matchless wisdom and sovereign strength enable You to outsmart evil with good! I want to encounter You in my difficult circumstances — believing that You are near me in my troubles. I need to unplug my emotions from all the problems and plug them into Your Presence. By connecting with You, my dark mood grows steadily lighter and brighter. Also, as I remain in You — plugged into Your radiant Presence — You enable me to see things from Your perspective. I can be joyful even during adversity by staying connected to You. There is abundant Joy in Your Presence! In Your joyous Name, Jesus, amen. Consider it nothing but joy... whenever you fall into various trials. Be assured that the testing of your faith [through experience] produces endurance. — James 1:2–3 AMP Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable His judgments! — Romans 11:33 Remain in Me, and I will remain in you. — John 15:4 You reveal the path of life to me; in Your presence is abundant joy; in Your right hand are eternal pleasures. — Psalm 16:11 HCSB |
