Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.” Matt 11:28-30 MSG
I believe it’s time for Believers to enjoy our relationship with Jesus, and the first step in doing that is to stop “trying” to please Him, follow Him and obey Him and know in both our minds and hearts that we are one with Him. He is in us through His Holy Spirit. And we also are in Him because now our spirit’s have been reconciled back to God. And because Jesus and God His Father are as one, now we are one with them and we can call ourselves children of the Most Hight God!
Now I said all that to say this, we often forget that truth of being one. And when we forget that, we forget that we are truly never alone. Because Holy Spirit is in us, where we are, so is He. What we experience, so does He. The problem is we get so into how we feel and what we sense that we think He’s not there. We say “He will never leave me or forsake me”, but the question is, do we believe it in our hearts?
He is walking with you today and everyday, 24/7/365, and He’s longing for you to acknowledge Him and invite Him to share your life with Him. I challenge you today to “practice His presence”. What I mean by that is to include Him in your day, talk with Him without “being in prayer”. Share the joys and the struggles of the day. Know how much He loves you and wants to be an active part of your life. Truth is He’s walking with you whether you acknowledge that or not. But since He knows the way better than you do, and has the answers to all life’s questions, why not let Him help you as you go on your way?
