Sometimes, we feel that God is far away from us especially in the time of suffering and hardships, we feel that we have been abandoned by our maker. But the answer is God is never far from us. He watches us and he knows our problems.
Job 37:7 Says:
He sealeth up the hand of every man; that all men may know his work.
God is always watching each and everyone of us, he is always near to us. He know all men and he feels our passions and emotions. He is a God who understands our weaknesses, our being and infirmities.
Now the question is "Why can he be so far from us?". The book of Isaiah 59:2 says:
But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you so that he will not hear.
Sin keeps us away from our maker. It's the greatest barrier between Man and God. It separates us from God thereby keeping the spirit of God far away from us.
But through repentance, faith and obedience to God's will he will forgive us, restore the joy of our salvation and renew his spirit within us.
God bless you all 🙏
