“I am with you…” Genesis 28:15

Watching our kids navigate the first few weeks of school, I noticed a common thread with them all. If they had a friend in class, it made all the difference because they knew they were not alone. We can apply this simple observation to our lives as well. We know that we are never alone. We are never without the Presence of our Father. Good days, hard days, sick days, first days, uncertain days and routine days, He never walks away from us. And when the days have added up a bit, we look back and see such evidence of Him. There is no way we could have kept walking if not for His nearness. Makes me so thankful for His company and my love for Him grows deeper.
