The Importance of Being There
I have much to write to you, but I do not want to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.—2 John 1:12 (NIV)
In the fear of the Lord is strong confidence.—Proverbs 14:26 (KJV)
WHEN YOU GET close to God, your weaknesses, self-doubts and insecurities disintegrate. You, as a child of God, have the strength within you to meet any situation. Make a plan of what you aspire to be, and hold it firmly in your mind. Commit to living into God’s hands and let Him bring out of you the powerful person within you who is able to overcome.
Heavenly Father, let me feel close to You. Grant, O Lord, that in this moment I may truly surrender my life to You and realize the power that is within me.
