A Thought from Practicing His Presence #1

"Union with God enables us to handle greater trials. God does not make us like Him just so He can look at us! He wants us to release the fragrance of Christ wherever we go."

What kind of union do you have with God? In defining your realtionship with Him, how would you describe the closeness you have with Him?

When in time of trials, through your realtionship with God, you can stand, because you do not stand alone. He said He is with you always, even until the end.

But in times of trials, that relationship, sends forth a fragrance of inner peace, refreshness, a refusual to let go, a determined strenghth to hold on. In that, others see and recievean inner challenge of stance by your witness.

But the key in this, is your "union" with God.....
