Why are you so far away when I groan for help? (Psalm 22:1; NLT).
“…he is not far from any one of us” (Acts 17:27; NLT).
For what great nation has a god as near to them as the LORD our God is near to us whenever we call on him? (Deuteronomy 4:7; NLT).
For in him we live and move and have our being (Acts 17:28, NIV).
“Keep on seeking, and you will find” (Matthew 7:7; NLT).
Father,
Today you seem
So far away.
Yet I know
You are near,
For in you I live
And move,
And have my being.
Please help me
To keep on seeking you,
With all my heart.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.
