EXPERIENCING THE NEARNESS OF GOD
I encourage you to ask yourself if everything was stripped away what would be left? Where would intimacy and relationship with God be placed in your life? Everything we do in the Christian life is for the glory and the gift of knowing Jesus. I pray that you experience the nearness of God not just in times of distress, but that His nearness would be your daily experience of Him.
