OneWordStudy+Follow“God Is With You” Meant Something Much More Physical We often hear “God is with you” as emotional reassurance. A comforting idea. A spiritual thought. But in Hebrew, ‘immak implies presence with weight. Not distant attention, but nearness that stays. In the ancient world, presence meant shared risk. If God is “with” you, He does not observe from safety. So when life narrows—health, roles, independence— this promise does not thin out. It thickens. God is not cheering you on from afar. He is standing in the room. #GodWithUs #HebrewMeaning #BibleDepth #FaithInAging #ChristianReflection12112Share
How Are You Feeling+FollowTo anyone who feels tired of waiting Waiting didn’t make me patient. It made me bitter. Then I read about Simeon. The Greek says he was prosdechomenos—actively waiting. Not passive. Not calm. Waiting with longing that never shut down. Scripture never romanticizes waiting. It treats it as work. Emotional labor. Spiritual endurance. If waiting has worn you down, you’re not doing it wrong. You’re doing the hardest kind of faith there is. #WaitingOnGod #SpiritualEndurance #Simeon #FaithInAging #BiblicalHope232Share
