Your Question:
Where is God when I need Him most?
Answer:
My friend, I believe the question of where God is when we need Him most is a complex one. The Bible teaches us that God fills all and is in all, with no spot where He is not. The distance between us and God is not one of physical location, but rather a moral one - it's sin that separates us from Him. However, through the sacrifice of the cross, we have been brought near to God through faith in Jesus' blood. As I reflect on this, I'm reminded that God is not limited by our circumstances or our ability to worship Him. He doesn't need our money or service, but when we offer them to Him, we magnify and exalt Him. God dwells in the midst of our relationships and community, and He is always available to us, wherever we may be. Even in the midst of crisis, God is present, seeking to guide and counsel us. As a pastor, I've seen many people struggle with the feeling of God's absence, but I've also seen how He can be found in the midst of relationship and community. Jesus teaches us that when we gather in His name, He is present with us. And as we seek God, we come to realize that He is not just a distant figure, but a loving Father who desires to speak to us, guide us, and bring us back to His heart.
