Promise for Today: The Nearness of God

by Rebecca Barlow Jordan

nearness of God - God is as near as your heart. And He still has plans for you.

How has God ministered to you in times of brokenness or doubt? 

A bruised reed he will not break, and a soldering wick he will not snuff out. Isaiah 42:3 NIV

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. Psalm 34:18 NIV

My Personal Prayer for You

Lord, when we feel broken and distant, show us the way back to You. Reveal Your nearness to us. As we draw close to You, You will draw close to us. Thank You that nothing can separate us from Your love, and that Your plans for us are always good, always constant–just like You. Heal every broken heart, stoke every smoldering wick, and fill us with the sweet, holy fire of Your Spirit. Use us for Your glory. Your promises are good. And so are You.

Day-votedly Yours,

Rebecca

*Part of this blog was first published a few years ago, but God impressed me to include it again. So many of you have shared needs, hurts, and are seeking for assurance that God still cares. Yes, He still does.
