Who knows of any single person on this earth that can meet with us anywhere, anytime we need them?
Who in your life will always show up where you are, no matter if you're walking down a road, sitting behind locked doors, or sitting beside the ocean?
I'm talking about 24/7, unlimited, nonstop availability.
The only person that is capable of this kind of guaranteed communication is Jesus. After his resurrection, he met with the disciples on a road (Luke 24:35), behind locked doors (John 20:19), and beside the sea (John 21:1)
So why, when we are faced with struggles or annoyances, do we sometimes turn to people that have limited availability? We text a friend, walk down the hall to vent to a co-worker, or call someone that we think will be there to listen to us. Don't get me wrong, these people are great and necessary to have in life...but we shouldn't depend on them to be our first choice when it comes to dealing with problems. Jesus will meet us wherever we are, so why don't we call on Him first?
