IN HIS PRESENCE Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. (Hebrews 4:16 KJV) Abigail was only three, but she knew that when she was at Grandpoppas house he made the best playmate ever. Sometimes she only had to ask twice to get him to play tea party with her and several stuffed animals or special dolls. He was usually pretty quick to turn on the sprinklers so Abigail could run through the grassy yard in her bare feet. More than anything, she enjoyed crawling up in his lap with her favorite book and presenting it to him to read. If he ever got tired of the same old story, he never let on. Instead, he read it each time with surprise and sincerity ~ like hed never seen the words before. What a joy to know that, just like Abigail, we can come into the presence of God and make our requests known to Him. Just like a grandparent loves to see joy in his grandchilds eyes, God loves to give us gifts and see us delight in time spent with Him. Whatever we have need of, we can come in and sit down with our heavenly Father and tell Him everything. Heavenly Father, thank You for always welcoming me into Your presence. I have assurance that You know what I have need of and that I can always rest in Your mercy and grace. Amen. 2014 Devotional Collection ~ Daily Wisdom for Women ~ ( Friday January 2nd )
