Good Morning,
Carol Steficek wrote about a promise Jesus made before he ascended into Heaven. Her writing is called, "I AM WITH YOU." Jesus told the apostles that he would be with his people until the "end of the age" which means He will be with us until He actually comes back at the end of the world. Carol wrote, "What we feel or think or experience doesn't change Jesus being with us always. We can trust His promise -- to the very end of the age."
It is an amazing benefit to know that what we believe is guaranteed.
God bless
Carol and Corinne

"I AM WITH YOU"
"I AM WITH YOU"
"And surely I am
with you always,
to the very end of the age."
Matthew 28:20b
These were Jesus' parting words to His disciples as He ascended into
heaven. His reassurance for them is also reassurance for each of us.
God never leaves us alone even for one minute of our lives. Sometimes we
"feel" alone and sometimes we feel closer to Jesus than at other
times.
There are times we feel depressed, or go through grieving, or experience
financial problems, or have difficult times with our marriages or
children. There are occasions when we pray and spend a lot of time
waiting for answers to our prayers. Life has plenty of rocky moments.
But God uses all times, even difficult ones, to grow our relationship with Him
and to show us His power. What we feel or think or experience doesn't
change Jesus being with us always. We can trust His promise -- to the
very end of the age.
