For the cloud of the Lord was on the tabernacle by day, and fire was in it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel throughout all their journeys. (Exodus 40:38)
What stuck me today was how little we keep God in sight. Let me explain. If we consider the daily circumstances, and everyday experiences, “journeys,” then how often or how prevalent is God in those activities? The answer: God is almost non existent in our thoughts and in our lives through these daily activities. In fact, God really is only a presence in our lives when we come to church on Sunday and intentionally focus on Him. For some reason we want to live our lives with God out of sight and therefore out of our minds. In doing so, we miss so many opportunities to have God’s presence journeying with us. I know we don’t intentionally cut God out of our lives, but perhaps we need to intentionally keep God in sight. What would happen if we would keep God in sight through all our journeys? What would that even look like? What kinds of journeys would we have with God?
