There were some people playing the game "Boggle" where you throw a number of cubes with letters on them and then try to make words out of the resulting letters. They weren't believers. When they finished coming up with their words, I said to them, "There's one word you all missed." "What word," they asked. "Jesus - Look it's right there." And of course it was. Then I added, "Isn't it something how you can miss something even though it's right in front of your eyes?" They didn't appreciate that. But it's true - and not just for unbelievers, but even for believers. Even Mary Magdalene didn't recognize Messiah, though he was right in front of her eyes. There are times in your walk when you won't see or feel or sense God's presence or His love. But no matter what you don't see or feel... He's there, right beside you. He has to be. He promised He would never leave you. His love is there in every blessing of your life, you just have to realize it's Him, or discern the name on the cubes.
From Message #1326 - The Fire & The Sword
Look for God's presence, God's favor, God's purpose in everything you do and see.
Scripture: Deuteronomy 31:8
