Good news & bad news: These Psalms devotionals have been removed because they are being revised and reshaped into a devotional book published by Our Daily Bread Publishing tentatively titled Shelter in the Storm. The purchase link will be posted here when it is available. For now, the best way to stay up to date on when the book is published is to subscribe to Noah’s blog updates, which you can do here.

I’ve been commenting way too much, but gotta say this post absolutely captures what it is to walk in this world but not be of it. You’re right about the presence of God as a present reality being not only possible but the point. I’m not sure why this happens so often, but it’s easy to read the Bible or hear teaching and settle for the doctrine as true without entering into the reality of the truth. For me, more often than not, it has to do with faith as a matter of believing with the heart and loving the truth, and too often having a divided heart. But for friends, a lotta times it’s a matter of not conceiving what it is to be in the Spirit as something distinct in their experience, and not because the Spirit is not with them. Some of that is that it’s never taught or talked about, and some theology excludes it as you said. But it seems to be the work that the Word of God does in us (Heb 4.12) and also where suffering leads us to, abiding in Christ as reality, and abiding in the Father in Him. 1 John 5.20
