Walk with God
Enoch walked faithfully with God; then he was no more, because God took him away.—Genesis 5:24 (NIV)
After he said this, he was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid him from their sight.—Acts 1:9 (NIV)
In this scripture, and in different passages throughout the Bible, clouds symbolize divine presence. Other examples are when Moses ascended Mount Sinai and a cloud covered the mountain, or at Solomon’s dedication when a cloud filled the temple. The next cloudy day, pause to reflect on God’s use of clouds to remind us of His presence and to feel His comfort when it is overcast.
Heavenly Father, help me feel Your presence, in both cloudy and cloudless skies.

For you are all children of light, children of the day. We are not of the night or of the darkness.—1 Thessalonians 5:5 (ESV)
After removing Saul, he made David their king. God testified concerning him: “I have found David son of Jesse, a man after my own heart; he will do everything I want him to do.”—Acts 13:22 (NIV)
