Even Here: God’s Presence

I don’t enjoy difficulties. I prefer the stage of an endeavor when you are experienced, have already built momentum, and everything is running smoothly. You know what to do, and you know how to handle every challenge that comes.

The new ventures with their unknowns? Uncomfortable. The rough patches that expose weaknesses? Not pleasant. The devastations that catch you by surprise? Let’s not even go there.

But . . .

in every uncomfortable, unpleasant, and devastating circumstance is a unique opportunity: The chance to see what God is capable of.

I am here, God says. even here.
I am capable, God says, even now.
I love you, God says, and I will not stop.
