A Prayer to Know God is Faithfully Present

In this episode of the Everyday Prayers Podcast, we reflect on Matthew 28:20 — “And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age” — as a powerful reminder of God’s continual presence, even in the midst of hardship. Erin Warren shares a deeply personal story about her youngest son’s diagnosis with type 1 diabetes, describing how the initial months were filled with exhaustion, fear, and emotional turmoil. In that season, she clung to the truth that God is faithfully present, even when she couldn’t find the strength for long times of prayer or study.

Drawing from Jesus’ promise to his disciples before His ascension, she highlights that while Jesus left them physically, He never abandoned them spiritually — and that same promise applies to believers today. Through references to Nancy Guthrie’s Even Better Than Eden, she emphasizes that the overarching story of Scripture is about God’s longing to dwell with His people.
