We Grow: A Journey of Drawing Closer to GodNäide

Day 145 of 365
Psalm 15 paints a picture of those who may dwell in God’s holy presence—those who live with integrity, righteousness, and truth. This isn’t a call to unattainable perfection but an invitation to a heart surrendered to God’s transforming work. The Holy Spirit empowers us to pursue these qualities, molding us from within as we draw closer to God. Dwelling in His presence means inviting Him into every part of our lives and allowing Him to shape our character.
Psalm 16 further declares, “In Your presence there is fullness of joy.” This joy is found not in external achievements but in the satisfaction that comes from being with God, in letting His Spirit fill our hearts. In John 9, Jesus heals a man born blind, revealing how God’s presence brings both physical and spiritual healing. When we abide in His presence, we experience His peace, joy, and restoration.
Today, invite the Holy Spirit to help you live daily in God’s presence. Let go of anything that may be a barrier, and open your heart fully to Him. As you walk closely with God, may His presence bring you strength, joy, and a deep sense of fulfillment that only He can provide.
