My ever-present love fills every nook and cranny. ‘Draw nigh to [Me], and [I] will draw nigh to you’ (James 4:8). All will be well. I will give you purpose and direction. You can’t be lost. I am wrapping you in My love.”
I began regularly praying with verses from a hymn in the Christian Science Hymnal:
