Have you ever walked around aimlessly wondering if God really existed? Whether or whether not you believe, that has always been an enigma at some point in most everyone’s life. There are times we feel Him to be so near to us and there are others when we wonder if He really exist or whether He is still around to hear our prayers?

The truth and reality of this enigma is that God has never pulled away from any of us. The reason why at times He seems far from us is because we draw away from Him. James 4:8 says “Draw near to God and He will draw near to you”. Many of us may say but I pray every day and read the Bible and go to church. Yes, we may do all the right things, but sometimes our heart is far from Him. God wants us to return to that first love, not getting caught in good deeds and works alone but loving Him fully. Not doing a lot for Him, but instead giving Him a lot more of our heart and love!

Father help us to draw near to you!

Revelation 2:4 “But I have this (one charge to make) against you: that you have left (abandoned) the love that you had at first (you have deserted Me, your first love).
