I know the footsteps of my family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My son J.D. treads slowly & softly through the house. My youngest has a busy gait. And my husband’s stride is medium and heavy down the hallway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s crazy to say that I know them by their footsteps; but, their paces on the wood floors have become as familiar to me as their faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It <\/a>takes an intimate relationship to know someone by the way they enter a room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The awareness of my Savior approaching is an especially welcoming encounter. I hear Him drawing near as I bow my head in prayer & acknowledge His footsteps coming ever closer as my praise grows in the room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, He’s there– in all His glory. He’s standing before me. The footsteps I’ve heard approaching bring a familiar presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve met with Him here before. Daily I meet with Him. I know the sound of His coming. I recognized the rhythm of His approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you know His gait? Are you familiar with His coming?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Intimacy with the Holy One builds relationship<\/p>\n\n\n\n

…and when His presence<\/p>\n\n\n\n

approaches, we should know just<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who He is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
