Today God is “with you”.

Today God is "with you"

"I am with you always." Mt 28:20 NKJV

To have a personal relationship with someone, there must be two-way communication. Even the most uncommunicative husband has to grunt every once in a while, or it isn't a marriage-it's a monologue. So, the Lord being with you, and you being with the Lord, takes place primarily in your mind. 

Two people may occupy the same room, but if one of them is sleeping or engrossed in television, they're not really with each other. There must be interactive awareness. Now, as human beings, we don't have "direct access" to each other's thoughts. We can use words, human touch, or hand gestures to guide another person's thoughts. But God is infinite rather than finite, so He is able to guide our thoughts directly. He can speak to us through Scripture or through the words of another person. 

But He can also plant His thoughts directly in our minds. "We have the mind of Christ" (1Co 2:16 NKJV). And this can happen anytime, anywhere. So, your mind is your meeting place with God!

There's much about God speaking to you •

that's a mystery. There are no formulas. You cannot control God's communication with you. You cannot force Him to speak by being more pious or more sincere or by working hard. 

Jesus told Nicodemus: "The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit" (Jn 3:8 NKJV). 

This much you can be certain of today: God is with you, and He will speak to you if you take the time to listen.

Today God is "with you"

Take the time to listen.
