He has already Come

I will sing of your love and justice;
To you, O Lord, I will sing praise.
I will be careful to lead a blameless life –
When will you come to me?

Psalm 101:1-2


This morning I was feeling a bit overwhelmed, partly because I have been sick the past day and a half and have a ton of work to catch up with and partly because for some reason I was feeling like God was far off and had abandoned me. This feeling is not unlike the feeling that David had here in Psalm 101. The Holy Spirit reminded me this morning that God has not gone anywhere. As much as the enemy would want me to believe the lie that I am on my own, the truth is that God has already come to me through the death and resurrection of His Son Jesus and the truth is that He lives inside of my heart of hearts and the refreshing news today is that He will never leave and He is unchanging. Don’t believe the enemy’s lies this morning as he tries to muck up your life with worry and doubt in an effort to redirect your focus away from Jesus and on to your own abilities to muddle through this life. God is near! He loves you and has a plan for your life that might not make sense to you right now but let me assure you this morning that His plan is good and perfect and there is freedom and joy and purpose in God’s divine will for your life. Pray and worship God this morning and the chains that try to bind up your heart for God will fall and you will have peace and you will be free and God will use you right where you are to reach a lost world for Him!

Thank you God that you have not abandoned us, that you will never abandon us, that your love is never changing and always perfect and just what our broken hearts need this morning to heal our wounds and set us free! We love you Lord with all of our hearts!
