Did you ever just have a random thought, straight out of nowhere?  And all of a sudden you start crying like a baby.

Just happened to me.  I was thinking about all the things I wanted to ask Jesus about. Questions about life.  All the whys.  About what’s coming.

We as humans have so many questions.  We want to know why things happen or don’t. We want to know the future so we can “prepare” for it.  So many questions.

So as I tried to think of one all encompassing question that would answer everything, I realized something.

If I had the chance this very moment to sit for two minutes with Jesus, I would not ask a thing. I just want His scarred hand in my scarred hand.  My head on His shoulder.  And not a word said.

If He were sitting next to me nothing else would matter.  His presence would be enough.  That’s when the water works started (I’m still crying now).

Guess what?  He is sitting with me right now.  He has always been sitting with me.
I just couldn’t see it.  I was so busy searching for the whys, I lost track of His presence.

Some times we feel so alone.  Heck we can be in a room full of people and feel alone.  But if you know Jesus, you are never alone. 

If you don’t know Him, it’s never too late to introduce yourself.  He’s actually been waiting to hear from you.

A fairy tale you may think.  I can tell you that His presence in my life is as real as anything I can see and touch. 

You see, my love is not in a religion or religious people.  My love is in the Savior that not only died for the world but died for a nobody like me.

I think I’m just going to sit in His presence a little longer. Boy, it does feel good.
