God is everywhere! What a reassuring message. What comfort. What hope. We are never alone. He is everywhere, all the time!
He is above us -
Psalm 91:4
He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
He is under us -
Deuteronomy 33:27
The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee; and shall say, Destroy them.
He goes before us -
John 10:4
And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
He is behind us -
Psalm 23:6
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
He is in us -
1 John 3:24
And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.
We have no greater consolation than to know that we are surrounded by God Almighty.
Once again, a simple chorus comes to mind to go along with today's spoonful:
Surround me, O Lord
Surround me, O Lord
Surround me, O Lord
And let Your presence fill this place
Friday's footnote: Enjoy the sweet presence of Jesus today; really enjoy it. Embrace it. Hold it dear!
Until tomorrow, Lord willing............
