I love a quote from a meditation book given to me by a friend years ago:
“Cry aloud – for that cry is the folly of one in love: “Lord, even though I love you… don’t trust me! Bind me to yourself, more closely every day!”
And this is exactly what He’s doing, I feel closer and closer to Him. Yesterday I wrote about a conversation with my Facebook friend Vincent, and to be honest, I was not in the chatting mood when I saw a message from him, but I paid attention to the nudge from God to have that discussion. An hour later, in thinking about what book to read for my 12 pm appointment with God, the feeling was to read Tim Storey’s book and to simply continue from where I had last left off. To read in that book almost exactly what Vincent and I had just chatted about was so astonishing to me and remember saying, ‘God, you’re too much!’ That was such an incredible God wink, where out of the blue, everything lined up perfectly and God again reminding me that His “unseen Presence” is a constant in my life.
Yesterday it was reading the following from Marianne Williamson’s book, ‘A Year of Miracles’ that did the trick:
“Believing in a separation between myself and God is the core of all my problems. For no such separation exists. I am not alone, for God is always with me.
There is no problem that God cannot solve. He guides me to right thought and action whenever I request it. He parts all waters and calms all storms, through His spirit that lives within me.
No matter what I go through today, I need not fear. For God is all-powerful and God is here. I am never separate from the one who created me. There’s nothing I can do to make Him turn his face away from me. I am loved, I am cared for, and I am totally safe in the arms of God.”
WE ROLL WITH GOD
