Through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus we have been afforded an opportunity to live an incredibly abundant life here on earth. Our God is nearer, more tangible, and has a greater ability to make his presence known than we’ve yet realized. He longs to make his children more in tune and aware of the depths of his love, guidance, empowerment, and nearness. He longs for our days here on earth to be marked by unveiled communion with him. As we look at what it is to live an abundant life here on earth, I pray that your heart will be awakened to the reality of God’s presence and affection in your life.

 

Our Scripture for today comes from Matthew 6:34, and today's worship is Here Now by Hillsong United.

Thanks so much for listening to today’s podcast, God cares about the present, the first in our week-long look at living an abundant life. 

 

If you’re looking for a practical way to practice being present today, one long standing spiritual practice is called breath prayer. Taking just a few minutes to focus on nothing but your breath, in and out, is a great way to learn how to focus on the present not just in prayer, but throughout the rest of your day. 

 

Have a wonderful rest of your day, and may God bless you as you seek him.
