Dwelling in the presence of the Lord is important for us. It's keeping our minds on the grace of God which wss the promise unto us. All things pertaining to life and godliness. "According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:" (King James Bible, 1769/2017, 2 Peter 1:3).

In all that we do, we must remember that God loved us before we were saints. “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Roma...
