"Lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world."
Matthew 28:20

      You are never alone. "In Him we live and move and have our being." (Acts 17:28.) He knows every thought that comes into our minds - and He loves us anyway.
    Can you adjust to your lack of privacy? Yes, He's right there with you in your living room seeing what you're seeing, watching what you are doing. Is this why so many Christians seem to leave Him behind in the sanctuary on Sunday? Some of us prefer a little less Divine intrusion.
    We can pretend He isn't there while we are going about our sinful routines, but that's just an illusion. The Spirit of Truth loves us too much to leave us alone. We know we are growing when we are no longer afraid to let Him see into our secret places.
    Remember, He's already there, anyway.
