Jesus promised that He would not leave us orphans...that He would send the Parakletos....the Comforter (He who comes to one's side). That means we need never be away from God's presence. The truth is that we can bask in His presence always. This is the unspeakable gift.
There are different proximities to God and His presence that may be experienced. There is the full presence as the light of the sun (and beyond)....then there is the light of the moon....and the stars. Each has a different proximity and intensity in light and presence. Where are we satisfied? Which proximity to God will we settle for?
If we knew this to be true....that we may experience His presence moment by moment in His keeping power...would we seek for more of His presence daily?
God is also a giver a gifts and granter of petitions.
But which are we seeking most fervently for?
