About this listen
In this fast-paced culture, it's easy to feel lonely and overwhelmed by life. In Always Near, Robert J. Morgan reminds us that God is closer than you can imagine. We need to train our souls to awaken to the simple pleasure of being present with our Savior so we can be relieved from what all-too-often overwhelms us.
Morgan shares 10 ways you can cultivate the blessings of God's presence, including:
- Discovering special places
- Focusing on things unseen
- Abiding in Scripture
- Highlighting special times
- Trusting God in difficulty
- Serving God in ways large and small
It will remind you that no matter how you feel, God is in the room. You can relax in his presence and let the stress drain from you.
It is time to nurture a sense of the abiding nearness of him, who is closer than a brother, so that you'll know more of his joy, strength, and comfort. Experience a relationship with the God who made you, who loves you, and desires for you to enjoy his presence. Seek the Lord and soon discover he was, is, and will be always near.

Story
In nearly 40 years of pastoral counseling, Rob Morgan has seen a lot of changes in our culture. People are anxious, and everyone seems increasingly tense and taut. We're overextended, running on empty, and often running late. We're worried, and we're weary. One moment we're alarmed about global politics, and the next we're frustrated with a clogged commode or a cranky boss. Stress can have a way of keeping us on pins and needles from dawn to darkness.

Life is hard, especially for Christians. It is certain that we will face difficulties and that God will allow them. But just as certain is the fact that the same God who led us in will lead us out. As The Red Sea Rules makes comfortingly clear, he is in control. Using the Israelites' story in Exodus 14 as an example, Robert Morgan offers 10 sound strategies for moving from fear to faith. Just as Moses and the Israelites became trapped between Pharaoh's rushing armies and the uncrossable Red Sea, so are we sometimes overwhelmed by life's problems.

It's not what I lost. It's what I've found. I was only 17, just a girl, when God asked me for everything I had...my health, my hopes, my independence, my dreams, my freedom, and my mobility. He took it all. I was so angry with him that I tried to push him away. God relentlessly held me more closely. Looking back, 40 years later, I understand that God has changed and healed me - my heart and my mind - in the most unexpected ways, giving me rubies of his wisdom about an unbending faith and an experience of his mercy I can now tell you about.
