God is present through it all

By Kristy Solis

There has been so much chaos and change in the world.  My daughters have voiced their concerns, with all the happenings in the world surrounding them.  Children are feeling vulnerable.

As parents, we care about the effects on them and especially on their well-being. The only reassurance is that God is present through it all; the good and the not so good.

Through it all, there is only one constant, God. If we reflect and remind our children, “God is a Spirit, and those worshipping him most worship with spirit and truth” – John 4:24.

God will guide and protect all of us through the disarray.  This is our hope through the chaotic world.

God is always present right here, right now, in this moment.  So, let’s all slow down and focus on God.  Let us be grateful for each moment with God.  Most importantly, let us pray and thank Him for another day or even a moment in time.

Lord, hear our prayers for all of your children to instill in them the never-failing God, even when they feel vulnerable in the world.  Let us learn to trust you, Lord, above all, even during the difficult days. Let us all feel your presence and protection of goodness.  God, grant us peace and strength through it all.
