Where God Dwells

How close is God to you? Where does God dwell in relationship to you? Do you experience God’s daily presence with you?
God has made his dwelling place with his people. God is near to each of us and has made his home with his children. We are never alone and we are never without God.
God spoke to his people through the Prophet Zechariah, saying, “Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion, for behold, I come and I will dwell in your midst, declares the Lord. And many nations shall join themselves to the Lord in that day, and shall be my people. And I will dwell in your midst, and you shall know that the Lord of hosts has sent me to you.” (Zechariah 2:10-11, ESV).
We can rejoice in the presence of God. We can sing joyful songs, because God has made his home with us. We are not alone. God is with us and God is for us. God dwells with his beloved.
May we rejoice in the presence of God and join ourselves to the Lord as his people, knowing God dwells in our midst.
In Christ alone, Robbie
A Prayer For Knowing And Loving God: “O God, the light of the minds that know you, the life of the souls that love you, and the strength of the wills that serve you: Help us so to know you that we may truly love you, and so to love you that we may fully serve you, whom to serve is perfect freedom; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.” (#72, Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
