Checking into God's Presence... It is another day in this New Year, and it is necessary to continue to live within the knowledge of God through the hope, trust and belief in His Holy Name. Residing in each day becomes possible as every tomorrow would be attractive and less threatening. Therefore, having hope in the unseen God makes life's challenges more bearable, for no one has it all. And irrespective, faith, hope, trust and belief in the Name of God should form the fulcrum of the energy in the drive to stay within the confines of His commandments, albeit in our daily pursuits. As we become ushered into another day by His Grace, let us keep our hope in Him alive, for we can only bear and go through the pressures of life if we become knitted to the love of Who is the, I Am that I Am: "Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls." For: "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls." 1 Peter 1:3-9 And in this New Year, "Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ", for great is His faithfulness. May the Lord renew our hope in Him daily like the morning dew and make us enjoy peace, happiness, good health and long life amid life travails in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen Http://testimony-times.blogspot.co.uk Just Checking into His Presence...
