THE PRESENCE OF GOD



A journey describes life in this broken world. I had often questioned my existence, wondered if it had any meaningful significance. I've often wondered if i was unique, if the challenges i faced have ever been felt by someone else, if there's anyone out there that can say 'i understand'.

I grew up without a mom or dad. When I was very young, I felt different when every kid in the block talked about their parents, I had nothing to say. I could not talk to anyone about it; I kept everything in, mostly because I was shy and I do not want to be judged or pictured inferior to my peers or treated with preference because of my situation. But today, I feel special because most things I learned along the way I could not have learnt them if my parents were around.

For the followers of Christ, we are assured of the constant presence of God (Ps. 139:7-12). The scriptures have assured us that there is no challenge that we will face that Christ has not already overcome.  When you appear lesser than your peers, God's grace lifts you beyond your imagination.
