“This is what the LORD Almighty says: ‘In those days ten people from all languages and nations will take firm hold of one Jew by the hem of his robe and say, ‘Let us go with you, because we have heard that God is with you.’” Zechariah 8:23
Dear Heavenly Father, For many years now I have known that you are with me. Your word has been opened to me by so many others and has been a huge comfort and guide. You have spoken into my heart at key times reminding me of your will and your grace when I needed it the most. You have guided, redirected, comforted and convicted me. I have often quieted my soul when I was anxious with the thought that you were with me. Now, when I see this passage, I’m reminded that your presence in my life, is an attraction to lost people. They can see that something is different. At least that’s what you want them to see and that’s what I hope they can see. Oh Lord, make your spiritual and temporal blessing in my life so clear that lost people from any cultural background will beg to be with you and me in this life and eternity. That you for your means of grace that bring you to my side every day. Amen.
God’s loving presence in our lives cannot be hidden from people looking for a spiritual place to call home.
