IN THE PRESENCE OF LOVE

I was reading Luke 12 and Romans 12 today. As I read, I was being strongly reminded that I must be bold in proclaiming Jesus name, unashamed to make Him known, and determined to know Him with all that I am. Willing and aware that it will cost me everything to follow after Him.

The second part of what I was reading encouraged me to be very mindful of how I go forward and what I put my trust in. Where my treasure is there my heart will be also. What is there to fret about if my Heavenly Father knows what I have need of and He is faithful to His word?

And finally, thank God for a friend that sticks closer than a brother. In the presence of love I am not afraid to fall, to fail, to be imperfect, to not have the right words, to be who I am, and to still be learning that without love... I am nothing and I have nothing.
