Matthew 28:20



And I will be with you always, to the end of the age. Matthew 28:20

Three thoughts:

1. I will

A word of confidence and joy. Do we believe it? How many have the confidence and ability to say this? No politician can say that. No religious leader can say that. No evolutionist can say that. They can say, but they can't follow through.

2. ...be with you always

Often we feel alone, even when surrounded by people. Sometimes we are all alone in the darkness of our mind, our soul suffering from heart break or sorrow. The Lord Jesus is with us. Doesn't a verse come to mind? In the deepest sorrows I've felt, God was there to help me.

3. ...to the end of the world.

He never leaves. No matter what happens even if the end of the world. The word is sometimes translated "age", but there is no indication that he would only be with His people only while He was alive or the nation existed. Be assured, He will be with us and not leave us. We are not abandoned.
