Really enjoyed this piece, especially as I have been trying to pray (much like the Jesus Prayer), Psalm 16:8. This also reminds me of Martin Luther's well-known description of faith, namely that "Christ is present in faith". That means, no matter what context - relational, or otherwise, if I come to Christ in faith, I will apprehend what is already there - Christ Himself and all of His benefits and promises. Thank you for this!
