\"\"Jesus said He would never leave us or forsake us<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span>\u00a0and this is such a powerful promise and one central to the\u00a0incarnational\u00a0nature of the Christian faith. \u00a0We are exhorted and encouraged with the promise of Christ in us, the hope of glory<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span> and yet so many of us live like we are all alone. \u00a0How many of our prayers ask God to come, to show up and how many of our worship songs call out in\u00a0desperation\u00a0to a God who seems painfully absent? \u00a0 This is a real sense that many of us on the Christian journey experience. \u00a0In this edition of Rhythms of the Heart Michael shares with us the \"I am's\" of the Gospel of John and how a shift in our perception may just reveal the present presence of God, alive and well in your life!<\/p>\n
