I Am With You In All That You Do



Matthew 10:29-31

What is the price of two sparrows—one copper coin? But not a single sparrow can fall to the ground without your Father knowing it. And the very hairs on your head are all numbered. 31 So don’t be afraid; you are more valuable to God than a whole flock of sparrows.
His eye is on the sparrow....& I know He watches me.

Phew! What a day! If you're like me right at this moment, then you feel a tiny bit frazzled. Or maybe a LOT bit frazzled. Don't worry...don't stress...do NOT come unraveled. It will be okay....
Off you go now and get a warm cup of tea...decaf of course...and return here so you can read this amazing devotion found in Sarah Young's devotional book: Jesus Calling: Enjoying Peace In His Presence
Remember my sweet friend, He is sitting right beside you...you are never alone!!

I AM WITH YOU IN ALL THAT YOU DO, even in the most menial task. I am always aware of you, concerned with every detail of your life. Nothing escapes MY notice--not even the number of hairs on your head. However, your awareness of My Presence falters and flickers; as a result, your life experience feels fragmented. When your focus is broad enough to include Me
 in your thoughts, you feel safe and complete. When your perception 
narrows so that problems or details fill your consciousness, 
you feel empty and incomplete. 

Learn to look steadily at Me in all your moments and all your circumstances. Though the world is unstable and in flux, you can experience continuity through your uninterrupted awareness of My Presence. Fix your gaze on 
what is unseen, even as the visible world 
parades before your eyes.

Matthew 10:29-31; Hebrews 11:27; 2 Corinthians 4:18

Lord,  
Please continually remind me of Your loving presence in my life. Slow my anxious heart down and let me see this world and the people in it with Your vision. Allow each of us to know that we are never without You. Even in our darkest place, shine Your word of truth into our hearts.
In the mighty name of Christ,
Amen
