Nouwen Meditation: God Stays With Us

From Fear to Love:  Spiritual Grounding in Anxious Times with Marjorie J. Thompson ““Holding the Shadow, Cultivating Compassion” Part two of this practical video series helps viewers see themselves and others as flawed, yet redeemed, works-in-progress. WATCH NOW DAILY MEDITATION | JULY 23, 2022 God Stays With Us I really don’t know if our civilization will survive the century. Considering the growing threat of nuclear holocaust there certainly is a reason to wonder. But important for me is not if our civilization will survive or not but if we can continue to live with hope, and I really think we can because our Lord has given us his promise that he will stay with us at all times. He is the God of the living. He has overcome evil and death and his love is stronger than any form of death and destruction. That is why I feel that we should continually avoid the temptation of despair and deepen our awareness that God is present in the midst of all the chaos that surrounds us and that that presence allows us to live joyfully and peacefully in a world so filled with sorrow and conflict. ‌ ‌ "The Lord works righteousness and justice for all the oppressed."
