Genesis 28:13-17  The Message

^13-15 Then God was right before him, saying, “I am God, the God of Abraham your father and the God of Isaac. I’m giving the ground on which you are sleeping to you and to your descendants. Your descendants will be as the dust of the Earth; they’ll stretch from west to east and from north to south. All the families of the Earth will bless themselves in you and your descendants. Yes. I’ll stay with you, I’ll protect you wherever you go, and I’ll bring you back to this very ground. I’ll stick with you until I’ve done everything I promised you.”
^16-17 Jacob woke up from his sleep. He said, “God is in this place—truly. And I didn’t even know it!” He was terrified. He whispered in awe, “Incredible. Wonderful. Holy. This is God’s House. This is the Gate of Heaven.”

For Reflection 

God is everywhere.  God demonstrates many times that God is found in unexpected places.  You may find God in a discussion with a person next to you on an airplane, or waiting for a bus, or in a bar, on a hike, or on a street corner: anywhere and everywhere.  No matter where you are, you can maintain our discourse with God.  Where ever you are, you are in God's house.

Pray

that you will be prepared to meet and witness to God during the most unexpected times and in the most unexpected places.  Pray for the courage and wisdom to bring God's comfort, compassion, forgiveness and justice to be known and experienced by all whom you meet.
