Family Reflection Video: I Will Be With You

Family Reflection Video: I Will Be With You

faithfulness  |  inspiration  |  trust

If God were to suddenly and miraculously appear and call out to you by name, how would you respond?

Moses was at work, tending the flock and doing his daily tasks … and then suddenly God breaks in! Just like in those wonderful movies we love, God interrupts. Sometimes He chooses to give us a gentle tap on the shoulder (or even shake us by the collar) to help wake up our belief!

God is really here with us, no matter where we are. God comes to us each day. When He calls, all He asks is that we answer: “Here I am.” And then let Him take it from there!

Have you ever thought God was trying to tell you something? Was it a confirmation of your plans … or did it change your plans? What was the outcome? How has God been with you and your family this day? These are great questions for the family dinner table. Share your stories and comments with our readers too in the comment space below.

Thank you for spending this time with us today. May God bless you and your family.
