We often hear it said, "I need to get closer to God". The fact is that God has not changed. He is always the same. He does not distance himself from us ever. The Bible says FAITH brings us to God. So what gives us a sense of God's nearness is Faith. We must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him. The enemy tricks us into believing that we don't "feel" close to God. Or that God has turned His back on us. Remember we can count on God's steadfastness, but "feelings" change like the wind. It is never how I "feel", but what He "said". It is my faith in His Word that brings me to Him. It is my faith in His Word that pleases Him, and not where I stand on the earth. It is not what I wear, or what I own, or what I know, or even who I am, that impresses God, but whether or not I believe His Word! He that comes to God must first believe that He is, and that He rewards those that seek Him. If you want to be near to God, then hear and obey His Word. Seek His face as you would a buried treasure. Love Him and tell Him just how you feel, and you will see His is not far from any of us. We live and move and have our being in Him. Be blessed. Billy and Jan Wells
