Your Presence
As I go through the day, morning or night
I am aware of your presence.
If I allow you to guide,
I have peace–I have your protection
I am learning as I go through this journey of life
My feelings are not always right
That is when I need to remember the past
Your presence that I felt when I prayed, and I asked
Your presence and help is always on time
Yet it happens again and again
When chaos comes as it always does
I worry, I whine and I fuss
I know the way is to learn how to trust
Your presence is reason enough
Lord, help me always to be aware
Your presence is always there

Comments on Your Presence
My prayer everyday is that I never lose that intimacy with the Lord that comes with being aware of his presence. My overwhelming longing is to have that awareness no matter where I am or what I am doing.
He has made his presence known to me in so many ways, but the one time when I was touched, the ecstasy I felt was like a foretaste of the future that awaits me living with my creator and savior for eternity.
The daily fellowship and prayer is the one thing necessary in my life that helps me through the trials of living this life, in this decaying body, in this decaying world. I have felt his love, I have felt his presence and nothing that this world throws at me can destroy the faith and the love that it produced.
God’s presence above all brings me great joy and trust. I can stand firm through trials and testings knowing that no matter what happens he is in control. He is for me, He loves me. If I fail like I do so often, he is there picking me up, holding my hand.
You make known to me the path of life;
in your presence there is fullness of joy;
at your right hand are pleasures forevermore
Psalm 16:11
