The Presence of God

Good Morning!  And what an amazing morning it is!  It's another Thankful Thursday and today I am particularly thankful for the presence of God in my life.  I know that I have shared with you the love I feel for Springtime.  For whatever reason, this year it has been a little sweeter than I remember in the past.  I pray that it is because I am feeling closer to my Creator than in the past.  Everywhere I look, I see God.  This week has been a glorious week, weather-wise.  The temperatures have been marvelous...not too hot, not too cool.  The sun has been shining; the birds have been singing.  It has been beautiful.  I have opened the sunroof in my car while driving and just reveled in the 'smells' and 'sounds' of spring.  I have stood outside my front door and looked to heaven and taken in all the beauty around me.  I have thanked God for His creation.  I have thanked God for the changing of the seasons (oh, that was last weeks Thankful Thursday!  *smiles*). 

I just can't get enough of this spring season.  I truly feel the presence of God in the air.  He has always been there, but I am acutely aware of Him right now.  I feel His presence all around me.  I don't know why I feel Him more than I have in a long time, but I do and that's all that matters to me.  You see, I want to feel His presence in every aspect of my life.  I want to see His beauty in all things and all people.  My heart is full of the love of Christ and I desire to be as close to Him as I can while I am on this earth!

I am so very thankful presence of God.  To be honest, I don't know how people get through this life without God.  I know that I would not be able to function if it weren't for my God!  His presence is to important to me.  Last night on the way home from church a song from the Newsboys came on.  I love the song and hadn't thought of it in a while.  The song is called It is You.  Part of the lyrics are: 

As we lift up our hands
As we call on Your name
Will You visit this place

By Your mercy and grace?


Won't you take a moment and just call on the name of God and 'feel' His presence!  He will visit you.  Will you take a moment to feel His presence?  Take a look around you and see the blessings He has bestowed upon you.  Be thankful for His presence.  Listen to the song and just rest in the glory of God and have a Thankful day!

Enjoying the Presence of God,
