One of the great truths of our faith as Christians is that Jesus Himself lives in our hearts and we can be secure in His love. Believing that Jesus lives in our hearts is not necessarily something we can explain or understand with our minds, but it is something we receive by faith. No matter what happens in our lives, Jesus is with us because He lives in us. When you feel happy, He is there. When you feel lonely, afraid, weary, or hopeless, He is there. You can talk to Him and hear from Him at any time, in any place, under any circumstance.
When Christ lives in your heart through faith, nothing—no storm of life, no pain from the past, no wound in your soul today—can uproot you from His love for you. Thank God for that and pray that He will give you more and more understanding of what it means to have Christ living in your heart, rooting you and grounding you in His love.
Lord, thank You for living in my heart. Keep me deeply rooted in Your love so nothing can shake my faith or steal my peace. Strengthen me daily, amen.
