“I Did Not Know It”

ODB RADIO: Listen Now |  Download
READ: Genesis 28:10-16

Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, “Surely the Lord is in this place, and I did not know it.” —Genesis 28:16

As Jacob did in Genesis 28, I like to remind myself each morning when I awaken that God is here, “in this place,” present with me (v.16). As I spend time with Him each morning, reading His Word and responding in prayer, it reinforces my sense of His presence—that He is near. Although we do not see Him, Peter reminds us that we can love Him and rejoice in His love for us with “inexpressible,” glorious joy (1 Peter 1:8).

We take the Lord’s presence with us all through the day, blending work and play with prayer. He is our teacher, our philosopher, our companion—our gentle, kind, and very best friend.

God is with us wherever we go. He is in the commonplace, whether we know it or not. “Surely the Lord is in this place,” Jacob said of a most unlikely spot, “and I did not know it” (Gen. 28:16). We may not realize He is close by. We may feel lonely and sad. Our day may seem bleak and dreary without a visible ray of hope—yet He is present.

Amid all the clamor and din of this visible and audible world, listen carefully for God’s quiet voice. Listen to Him in the Bible. Talk to Him frequently in prayer. Look for Him in your circumstances. Seek Him. He is with you wherever you go!

Oh, how oft I wake and find
I have been forgetting Thee!
I am never from Thy mind;
Thou it is that wakest me. —MacDonald

Our greatest privilege is to enjoy God’s presence.

Happy Sunday!

Power outage and subsequent draining of the backup batteries had me in the dark till late last night and when power returned, cable was out.

All is back to abnormal today. Lunch with a friend and I'll be back surfing in a couple hours.

~My King's Sky~

Blessed are those who are Strong in the Lord,
Who Want Above All Else to Follow Your Steps.
When they Walk through the Valley of Weeping,
It will Become a Place of Springs
Where Pools of Blessing and Refreshment Collect After Rains.
They will Grow Constantly in Strength,
And Each of them is Invited
To Meet with the Lord in Zion.
(Ps.84:5-7)
