Continuity
Written in 2025.08.27
Before, during prayer, I found myself saying, “Lord, please teach us to enter Your peace.” And a question arose in my heart: why must we enter it again and again? Can we not simply abide in Your peace and remain there, instead of constantly oscillating and feeling double-minded? This reminded me of being filled with the Spirit—why can’t we be filled continuously, at all times?
At the same time, a Scripture came to mind: “Keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life” (Jude 1:21). It seems we are called to maintain a posture of abiding in Him, a continuous state of remaining in His presence. Continuity in His presence is essential.
I have asked God to teach me how to keep myself in His love and never stray. Regarding the prayer to enter, I long to continually enter deeper peace, a deeper understanding of Him, and a fuller comprehension of His holy love. I do not want to be distracted or step out of this process. By His grace, I simply believe that I cannot—because He is always holding me, and I know it.
Isaiah 46:3-4
“Listen to Me, O house of Jacob,
And all the remnant of the house of Israel,
Who have been upheld by Me from birth,
Who have been carried from the womb:
Even to your old age, I am He,
And even to gray hairs I will carry you!
I have made, and I will bear;
Even I will carry, and will deliver you.
Amen!
