He’s Still There

every morning to read
God's Word, to meet with
God through the pages of
the Bible.

know that the Lord is still

what makes me really look
forward to being there with
Him,” she says.
Mrs. Cobbs used to feel
guilty if she occasionally
missed those daily times of
Bible reading. Then she
came to see Bible reading
not as a duty or obligation,
but as an opportunity to
spend time alone with a
trusted friend
Those times became
something to look forward
to, rather than a duty to
perform. And there was
the added assurance that
God did not abandon her
if she missed a day.
“He shows up at the
meeting whether I’m there
or not. We have that un-
derstanding, and He’s
there.”
