Zechariah 2
We do not have a distant God who is not involved in our lives. On the contrary we have a God that lives among us, is in our heart, and who will never leave us nor forsake us. Even Jesus name proclaims who He is:
Our God provides for all of our needs and is available anytime we call.
“Shout and be glad, Daughter Zion. For I am coming, and I will live among you,” declares the Lord. v10

My Prayer: Lord Jesus, You are a great God who knows everything about me, including my sin, yet You chose me, suffered and died for me, saving me from the sting of sin and death. Thank You Jesus for blessing me, yet You bless me beyond what I deserve. I worry far too much. Please forgive me Jesus and help me overcome such sin and turn towards You. Help me love You with all of my heart, soul, and mind and love others as You do. Help me grow in my faith. Give Lisa and myself strength and wisdom. Please heal Lisa of her cancer and from the side effects of chemo. Help us lead Zach and Dustin to You Jesus and for them to choose You as their Lord and Savior. Help me serve You, my family, my church, and others. Help me understand, be obedient to, and apply Your message for me today and every day.
