God is with me……
When the lady in the below video said, “God is with me everywhere I go,” it really struck me. I already knew this, but it is something I have been thinking about lately. I had just shared with some friends this past Sun a conviction the Lord brought to my heart. Sometimes I can go places or participate in things I know are not pleasing to the Lord. Wherever I am or whatever I am doing is not helping me grow in my relationship with the Lord or bringing glory to God. If I am trying to “hide,” not wanting anyone to know, it is a good indication that I am in sin. I want to be a light. I want people to see something different in me. If an unbeliever friend or family member saw me somewhere I shouldn’t be, I would not be setting a good example and it could really hinder any attempt to share the gospel. A friend asked me if this was fear of man/what people may think of me or if it was a true desire to bring honor and glory to God in all I do. I think this is a good thing to think about. I don’t want to be motivated out of the fear of man. I have always been a person that wants peace at any cost (even if that means sinning or not speaking up when I know I should). I don’t like conflict. I always want everyone to be happy. I want to be friends with everyone. This is definitely an area where I can grow.
Heb 4:13 “Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give an account.”
Nothing can be hidden from God. He knows about everyone everywhere, and everything about us is wide open to his all-seeing eyes. God sees all we do and all we think. Even when we are unaware of his presence, he is there. When we try to hide from him, he sees us. We can have no secrets from God. It is so comforting to know and realize that although God knows us intimately, he still loves us.
