Dear Friends,
I love the fact that, through the Holy Spirit, Jesus is always with us. No matter where we go and regardless of what situation we find ourselves in, He is always there. It may be difficult to sense His presence, especially in the midst of pain and suffering, but He promised us that he’d be there no matter what. That gives me comfort for today and every day. Some of you may remember the poem “Footprints in the Sand”. It’s worth reading again and remembering the words “I am with you always”. I’ve attached the poem for your reading and meditation. Peace! Scott

I Am With You Always. These were the last words I spoke before ascending into heaven. I continue to proclaim this promise to all who will listen. People respond to My continual Presence in various ways. Most Christians accept this teaching as truth but ignore it in their daily living. Some ill-taught or wounded believers fear (and may even resent) My awareness of all they do, say, and think. A few people center their lives around this glorious promise and find themselves blessed beyond all expectations.
When My Presence is the focal point of your consciousness, all the pieces of your life fall into place. As you gaze at Me through the eyes of your heart, you can see the world around you from My perspective. The fact that I am with you makes every moment of your life meaningful.

Matthew 28:20 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.
Psalm 139:1-4 1 You have searched me, Lord, and you know me. 2 You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. 3 You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways. 4 Before a word is on my tongue you, Lord, know it completely.
