A special and unique room within you
The room which God has created within us, it is completely peaceful. It is tranquility and tenderness itself. And one can actually feel God’s love pervading that whole space, just as the warmth and aroma of candlelight pervades the whole interior of a small cabin, or a crackling fire fills a room with its warmth.
We, each of us, have this peaceful room within us, whether we are conscious of it or not. It is a room filled with the memories we hold most dear, a room decorated with the hopes we hold most passionately, it’s a room filled with the people who are connected to us in love.
This is room which God creates within us is not just only a hideaway, a refuge or a sanctuary or retreat from the storms that rage in the world , though it is all these things. It is also a source of life and energy and vitality radiating outward. Just knowing that God is there waiting for our return to the room within, this knowledge is a source of all the peace, hope and courage we will ever need.
How do we enter the room that God has prepared for us?
“If anyone loves me,” said Jesus, “then we will make our home within them.”
It all falls into place in the simple act of loving the one who first loved us.
Whatever happens, we shall not be cut off from the love and protecting care of the Creator.
From inside out
God loves us in a way that is more direct than our own parents can love us.
For the very reason that God can reach inside our hearts and hold on to us through the very bones and sinews of our bodies. God can get to us from the inside.
God can reach out to us even before we are aware what is happening. The problem is we hold back from such intimacy.
In the face of all our fears and anxieties, Christ’s words are simple and his words are clear: “Let not your hearts be troubled.
I will not leave you desolate.” Well, if you are to mature in your faith, you’ve simply got to take Christ at his word. If you do put your trust and confidence in the Lord, then I can assure you that your future does bear promise.
Trust in God’s Heart for you
If you begin to act in the confidence that flows from a direct relationship with the Creator of the universe, you will find the solution to your problems.
When we allow God to occupy our hearts, we not only experience peace within, we also have strength and energy to address the problems of the world. Are you ready now to let the light come streaming in?
GOD has already made a ROOM,
HOME in your heart.You can pull back curtains of anxiety and fear.
