How Close Is God

When the world seems to close in around us we might have a tendency to wonder if God is nearby.  Do you ever felt that way?  I have. 

I hope these reminders encourage you. 

How close is God?

He is as close as …

-The birth of a baby

   -A breath of air

      -A baby’s soft cries

-A couple in love

   -An act of grace given without fanfare

      -A soldier standing in harm’s way

-A child’s laughter

   -A flower bud bursting open

      -The song of a bird

-The words “I love you”

   -A smile

      -A healing touch

-A word of encouragement

   -A friend when in need

      -A stranger offering a helping hand

-An orange fresh from the tree

   -A sunrise

      -A sunset

-A clap of thunder

   -Rainfall on a tin roof

      -Music that stirs the soul

-A cheery phone call

   -A cup of coffee with a friend

      -A loving touch of assurance

-A musician performing from his/her heart

   -A job offer

      -A loan approval

-A dose of medicine properly applied

   -A wise word properly stated

      -Significant words from His book

Become aware of the nearness of God.  He’s not just found in church on Sunday you know.
