October 8 (B) – Presence of God is Real
The following devotion is part of a ten-post series by Shelly.
The Secret of Being Content
Philippians 4:4-12
Presence of God is real.
Verse 4 says “Rejoice in the Lord always.”
I’ve always read that with the emphasis on Rejoice and Always. Read it out loud again with the emphasis on “In the Lord” …… I said out loud! 🙂 Why do I and can I rejoice always? Because I am IN the Lord. All the events are outside and will come and go (yes they can be hard, painful, fun or satisfying) but I am always IN the Lord. His presence is real and constant.
