There are days when the fog of uncertainty covers up the rays of the sun, and we cannot make sense out of what is happening to us. JESUS, HELP ME SEE YOUR PRESENCE IN THE DAILY EVENTS OF MY LIFE. If we live in the presence of God, we will begin to experience his support in all that comes our way. Jesus will no longer be confined to the “religious moments” in our formal prayer. He will be with us as we return to daily living. Having Jesus with us will bring a real contentment and peace even as we deal with the challenges, disappointments, and crosses. There will be times when we experience the “little miracles” that help move us ever closer to God’s kingdom.
This awareness will become ever more real; we will sense his working in us and through us. God’s presence in the events of our lives will be seen by others. Christ will put people in our lives who will be attracted to this way of living and will be open to receiving an invitation to join us in sharing a spirituality that will enrich their daily lives. Our ministry will blossom beyond formalities and become a light to those who seek a personal relationship with Christ.
- When you wake up in the morning, what motivates you?
- Are you able to call to mind your relationship with Jesus during the day?
- Has your life been an invitation to others to develop a relationship with God?
O God, help me see your presence in the daily events of my life.
