Where is God? I don't hear Him. I don't see Him. He is nowhere to be found. Is that true? Has God abandoned you? Never. For the Christian, God is only Good. And to be Good is to be All Good. To be All Good is to be ever-present.

To know the sweetness of the Gospel of our Salvation, first, we must know the truth of our soul's condition apart from Christ. “I have a great need for Christ: I have a great Christ for my need.” ― Charles H. Spurgeon

We are prone to wonder in the Christian life. We tend to sin under many different circumstances in this life. All the while recognizing, even in the moment, what it is we have done against God. Why do we wonder? Why do we sin? Because we so often forget. But what is God's grace to the Christian in this life? That He is always with us. He brings us back. He repents us and causes us to remember.

Christian, in the midst of a trial, where do you look? Where do you go? Where do you seek refuge from the storms of life? We serve THE God of all. Whatever is good, He is. Let this prayer serve as this reminder: God knows best, let us run to Him, and love Him for it.

Often when we reflect on our salvation as a Christian, we immediately think of Christ, and rightfully so. Without His birth, life, death, resurrection, and ascension there is no faith. But is that everything? Why did Christ come? And how was His meritorious life and sacrificial death accounted to you? Because your salvation is a Triune accomplishment. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. One God. One Essence. Three Persons.

In this opening episode we describe the journey we are about to take together and how that journey will be walked out. This is a simple journey, one that is authentic, one that I pray will bless your soul, renew your mind, and lead your hands and feet as you live out True Christian doctrine to the glory of God. Welcome to Puritan Prayers and Ponderings, let us walk through this valley together.
