Daily in Your Presence - July 9
Day 191
PILLAR OF CLOUD
By day the Lord
went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud
to guide them on their way.
FROM THE FATHER'S HEART
My child, whenever you encounter an obstacle, remember, I have already provided a way around it or through it. Just like I led the Israelites on their journey to freedom, I will lead you. A cloud can bring gale force winds, provide a covering for extreme heat, or bring refreshing rain. But I am Lord of the clouds. I will be your pillar of cloud, leading you to safety. The next time you see a cloud on the horizon, don't fear the storm. Look closely, and you will see and feel My presence.
A GRATEFUL RESPONSE
Lord, Your path is not always the shortest, but it is always the best one for me. Although the sands of time may shift and temporarily hide Your footprints, You are a pillar of cloud by day for me. The waves of Your love refresh me as I follow Your leading. Thank You for guiding me wherever I go.
SIMPLE TRUTH
Walking with your head in the clouds is not always a negative.
