Today I will:
In God I have put my trust; I will not be afraid. Psalm 56:11 (NKJV)
What would it really be like to have Jesus walk with us physically everywhere we go? What would we do differently? How would we behave? Or would we just let Him lead the way?
If we truly trust God and His words to us from the Bible, then one of the ways that we can strengthen that trust is to take to heart the fact that He is with us and will never forsake us. If Jesus is truly at our side-as well as on our side-do we really have to strive so hard to get ahead? Would we really worry so much about meeting deadlines? Would we let the stress of daily life get the best of us to the point that we cause others stress rather than help ease their burdens?
God's promises aren't just for when we are with other Christians. God wants us to know Him and feel His presence with us every day and in every place of our lives. He wants us to have success in every area of our lives by trusting in Him and walking in His ways. Take several opportunities today to stop and think of what it would be like if Jesus were literally standing right next to you at that moment-because, in truth, He is right there waiting for you to acknowledge Him.
