James 4:8a: Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. (ESV)
Deeper and deeper you search for what will finally give you peace
Little do you know that all along it is right there
Life and its very essence, staring you in your face
Awaiting the day that your eyes will be opened and you will at last, find it, see that God has always been there.
For you, dear believer, here are some affirmations from your Father:
I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb. (Jeremiah 1:5)
I have called you by your name; you are mine (Isaiah 43:1b)
Come to me all you who are weary and heavy burdened and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28)
Are you ready to come to your Creator today?
PRAYER: God, you are my peace. In this moment Lord, I ask that you change the posture of my heart so that I can draw near to you and encounter your presence and peace. In Jesus name I pray.
