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)
Although God wants you to learn from the past and plan for the future, He wants you to live in the present. Right now, this moment is what counts. Be still and receive the gift of God’s comfort. Trust your future is in His hands.
Lord, help me to celebrate Your loving presence right here, right now.
