  "If we know that Jesus is with us....every grace will be strengthened.... Therefore is the presence of Christ to be desired above all things... Remember, His presence may be had. His promise is as true as ever. He delights to be with us. If He doth not come, it is because we hinder Him by our indifference. He will reveal Himself to our earnest prayers."

  "Behold, I am with you all the days - perpetually, uniformly and on every occasion." Mt 28:20
  "I will not in any way fail you nor give you up, nor leave you without support. I will not, I will not in any degree leave you helpless nor forsake nor let you down. Assuredly not!" Heb 13:5
  "The Lord is for me....[Yes], the Lord is God, shining upon us." Ps 118: 6, 27
  
  I want to walk through this upcoming year tangibly sensing His presence. It is the cry of my heart.
  
  Today's "gratitudes":
      > I'm grateful for sunshine.
      > I'm grateful for worship that moves my otherwise unbelieving and trembling heart.
      > I'm grateful for faith that can lighten any load. It's His gift, available every day.
