Being in God’s presence is the beginning of wisdom. But how do we get there? It is
not what we have to do, to be in God’s presence. God is already present to us. We
believe by faith that God dwells within us. We simply need to become aware of it.
Sometimes it becomes difficult to have that awareness because we are in an
environment in which we do not feel comfortable to share what is happening in our
lives on a spiritual level. This is why what we need to make God’s presence a priority in
our lives is to have a supportive community. Holy Cross Associates have the
opportunity to share their spiritual journey with their fellow companions. This is what
creating community is all about. Who supports you in your spiritual growth?
When we wake up and look at our lives with a grateful heart, experiencing God’s
presence will follow. We then are able to become a sign of hope to a troubled world.
• Do you experience God’s presence in your life?
• What circumstances in your life help you become more aware of God’s
presence?
• Do you have a supportive community to help in your relationship with God?
O God, help me become more aware of your presence in all aspects of my life.
