Thank You, Father, for accompanying me yesterday through two worship services, travel to and from Newark, as we spent some precious time with some of Karen’s family, a short visit with some family who are more local, and then a little time with just the two of us before retiring for the evening. Nothing big, but nothing below You, Father. You are all about relationship, and You are constantly investing in our relationship. What a wonderful gift to me. Thank You, Father.
Thinking along these lines, I am remembering something that happened when I was a sophomore in college. I was a part of a traveling ministry team. We were on the road, and being college students, we didn’t have much money. In fact, one of the girls had no money that weekend. We stopped for a quick bite at McDonald’s, and to make a long story short, You provided a sandwich, I believe, for her by granting one of us a peel-off Monopoly game sticker!
It may not have been anything big, but it made me think then, and it makes me think now, almost 40 years later. You love us. You created and maintain the universe! But You know and care for each of us. You take time for me. You are never too busy. I am not a bother. I am Your cherished child.
As I go through this day, Father, I know You go with me. A portion of Psalm 23:4 comes to mind, and I learned it from the King James Version,
“… I will fear no evil… for thou art with me…”
Thou art with me… and I carry on. Amen.
