GENESIS 28:16 "And Jacob awoke from his sleep and he said, surely the Lord is in this place and I did not know
it."
Many times, when we are not even aware, the Lord is with us. God is there with you even when circumstances seem out of control. He is already working everything together for your good.
Even when you can't see it.
"And Jacob rose early in the morning and took the stone he had put under his head, and he set it up for a pillar and he poured oil on its top (in dedication)." (Genesis 28: 18)
Just as Jacob dedicated himself to the Lord each morning, we as Christians, even though we cannot see the outcome, should dedicate ourselves to God. For His goodness and His mercy will follow us all of our days.
For surely, the Lord is in this place...
I am thankful today that
wherever He is welcome...
He can be found!

Happy TT, Laurie!
I am so thankful for the presence of the Lord. It is beyond my comprehension the number of times that the Lord's presence intervene on my behalf and I don't even realize it.
Thanks for a beautiful reminder of His presence.
Love you,

Being in the presence of God is an amazing thing, and if we stop in the middle of chaos and crisis, remembering He is always with us, it's breathtaking to know He is right there. I love that song! Lovely post, Laurie. Happy Thankful Thursday!

How awesome to know that our creator loves us so much that He allows us to be in His presence!
