Guess Who Moved Away?

“Those who are far from you will perish; you destroy all who are unfaithful to you. But as for me, it is good to be near God. I have made the Sovereign Lord my refuge; I will tell of all your deeds” (Psalms 73:27-28).

Really, there are only two positions in life - close to God and far away from Him.

I mistakenly believed that the cause of my problems was the thriving of the ungodly in my life, but having entered into the sanctuary of God, I now see that this was not the cause of my problems at all. My problems came because I had chosen not to remain close to Him. For me, there is only one thing that matters - staying close to God.

How are things with you at this moment? Do you feel close to God? If you don’t, then let me say the very same words that caught my attention some years ago: “IF YOU FEEL THAT GOD IS FAR, GUESS WHO MOVED AWAY?”
