Inviting the Divine into My Daily Routine
As I step out of my front door, lock it behind me, and embark on my morning walk, I extend an invitation to a special companion to join me – the Lord. With each step, I ask Him to walk alongside me, and I’m filled with delight as I sense His presence. The gentle morning light casts shadows across the trees, and the crepe myrtles seem to greet us at the intersection, where I get to choose the path I’ll take.
Embracing the Joy of His Company
Whichever direction I choose, I know He’s with me, and I can pour out my heart to Him without hesitation. The fresh air is filled with His presence, and I’m enveloped in a sense of peace and strength. His spirit dwells within me, reminding me that I belong to Him, and He belongs to me. This unique joy I experience in His company is a treasured gift.
Cultivating a Deeper Connection
Over the years, the Lord has cultivated a deep and intimate relationship with me, one that transcends the mundane and speaks to the very essence of my being. I’ve discovered that when I abide in Him, as scripture encourages us to do, He reveals hidden treasures and secrets that bring me closer to His heart. As we stroll hand in hand past the crepe myrtles and over the creek bridge, I’m reminded that this relationship is the greatest treasure of all.
Abiding in His Love
Jesus’ words in John 15:9-11 resonate deeply within me: “As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love. If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and abide in His love.” In these words, I find comfort and assurance that His joy remains in me, and my joy is made full.
