One benefit of growing older is possessing wisdom that builds a bridge to better judgment and choices. Pressing onward toward the mark of the high calling in Christ Jesus becomes more urgent. Those who love God can realize he has been continuously present throughout life’s struggles as well as the joyful, happy days.
Some mistakenly think God is present only for unique events when his power is witnessed touching the lives of worshipers. God is constantly present, for his name is Jehovah-Shammah, “the Lord is there”. In Exodus 23:20 God told Moses, "See, I am sending my angel ahead of you to guard you and bring you to the place I have prepared."
In Psalm 139 David asked God, “Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence?" It's awesome to realize that God is everywhere continuously. God is always there, so let this fact be a source of comfort and assurance for whatever you’re facing at this moment.

Now we can come fearlessly right into God’s presence,
assured of his glad welcome when we come with Christ and trust in him.
