We grossly underestimate how much God longs for us to know and experience His presence daily. The reason I say this is because recently I decided to look at the final verse of each book in the New Testament. An overwhelming number of them are reminders that Jesus (or the grace of Jesus) is with you!
So, if you ever feel all alone, or doubt that God is intimately involved in your life, you might want to keep this list handy:
Matthew And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
Mark Then the disciples went out and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them …
1 Corinthians The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.
2 Corinthians May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.
Galatians The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit…
Philippians The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit…
Colossians Grace be with you.
1 Thessalonians …our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
2 Thessalonians …our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
1 Timothy Grace be with you.
2 Timothy The Lord be with your spirit.
Titus Grace be with you all.
Philemon ... the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
Hebrews Grace be with you all.
Revelation The grace of the Lord Jesus be with God's people. Amen.
Could God have made it more obvious!?!
