I am with you

I am with you.

You don’t have to jump through hoops or mine your deepest thoughts.

I am with you.

You don’t have to journal or write or set aside time for me.

I am with you.

You don’t have to pray or talk to me.

I am with you.

You don’t have to serve me.

I am with you.

You don't have to figure it all out.

I am with you.

You don't have to wait till my voice rings loud and true. 

I am with you in the silence.

I am with you in the secret.

I am with you in the stillness. 

I am with you always. I love you endlessly.

Sometimes I forget that God is with me even when I don’t do all my daily rituals that make me feel closer to Him. The reading and writing and examining and praying are part of the relationship, for sure, but He’s with me even when I don’t hold up my end of the bargain. He’s with me no matter what. And that’s pretty cool.
