God says : "I will never leave you or forsake you."

(Hebrews 13:5)   Wow, what an incredible promise.  When God says "never" that means always.   He is always with us.  Then why do we sometimes feel like He is a million miles away?    

How many times have you been at home with your family and yet felt alone?  What is the answer.  You go and find a family member and begin to fellowship with them.  Pretty soon the loneliness goes and you feel the warmth of family love surrounding you.   Well the same is true of God.  He is there always for us.  We don't have to fast and pray in order to get closer to God.  After all, you could fast for 40 days and draw really near to God, dying in the process.   

No, God did not make it difficult for us to come to Him.   Jesus said, "If any man thirst, let him come unto me and drink" John 7:37    It is that simple.    "Draw near to me and I will draw near to you" James 4:8    The invitation is open to everyone.   God is no respecter of persons. Acts 10:34    You  have an open door to God.  Whenever you feel lonely, just call on Him and He will answer you and show you great and mighty things.  Jer 33:3
