My husband and I recently watched the new Star Wars movie, Rogue One.  In the movie there was a man that constantly repeated a phrase over and over.  It didn’t matter if he was just sitting still or doing something, he always repeated the same phrase. (By the way, I’m not giving anything away on the movie, so if you haven’t seen it, it’s okay to continue reading!)

The phrase he repeated over and over was, “The Force is with me. I am one with the Force.”  Whether you’re a Star Wars fan or not, you know that “the Force” is what the Jedi use to fight against the Dark Side.  So by this man repeating this phrase over and over, he was basically building faith within himself that no matter what he encountered, the Force would be with him and would help him accomplish his plans.

As I was driving to work this morning, I thought of this phrase and realized how easily I could change the wording to become, “God is with me. I am one with God.”  No matter where I am, what I’m doing or what I might be facing, reminding myself that God is with me and I am one with God is something I should be repeating all the time.  It’s an assurance, a faith booster and a reminder that God is ALWAYS with us.  He never leaves us or forsakes us.  All we have to do is simply call on Him and He is there.
