These five monitors of circumstance hinder our eternal perspective. They can dim our heavenly vision, numb our spiritual discernment, neutralize our saltiness, defile the sweet aroma of praise, and even drown out that still, small voice.<\/b><\/p>\n

Father, forgive us I pray. Eternity is real. Our hope remains unseen. Now, despite this present affliction, we grab hold \u2013 and with Holy violence, enter into your Kingdom dwelling.<\/i><\/h2>\n
Dwelling\n<\/span>Your abounding presence around me\nSafe blanket of protection\n\nYour hovering presence above me\nThat orders my direction\n\nYour sustaining presence beneath me\nMy tried and true foundation\n\nYour abiding presence within me\nThe source of my elation!<\/pre>\n
\u201cFor in him we live and move and have our being…\u201d Acts 17:28<\/b><\/h2>\n

\n<\/strong><\/span>My Thoughts<\/span>
\nWhere could we go to escape the omnipresent, omniscient, omnipotence of our God? Why would we even want to? Divine fellowship unto protection, guidance, comfort, and loving conviction are among the blessings of our inheritance as believers. Jesus is our mighty refuge \u2013 even in the midst of tribulation. Our natural eyes can\u2019t behold Him, but faith bears witness that He is real. When we don\u2019t feel Him, we can be assured that He is there. Let\u2019s stop and give Him Praise right now \u2013 Hallelujah!<\/p>\n
