God Quote-Presence and Rest

JOHN SHIRK – In the Year of God’s Word, this is what the LORD says in Exodus 33:14.

“My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”

He was replying to His servant Moses who said, “If you are pleased with me, teach me your ways so that I may know you and continue to find favor with you. Remember that this nation is your people.”

This conversation was happening as the Israelites were on the journey from Egypt to the Promised Land. Moses was telling the Lord, “If your presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here.” He preferred to stay in place with God rather than to go forward without Him. Real progress is made on our spiritual journey when we are enjoying God’s Presence, moving at the same pace and in the same direction as His guiding hand. That is where we find rest for our souls.

Exodus 33:14-That’s today’s God Quote for us to embrace for Life.
