How close is God?

God's nearness is more than a comforting thought; it's a powerful, provable reality.

Anneliese Bolt

Original in German

Lots of people believe there is a God, but how do they picture the Almighty? Often He's thought of in abstract terms as some far-off being, unapproachable, out of reach. Many, therefore, remember God and pray for help only in extreme need. Perhaps these prayers are not always answered because they represent a call to God to come to us rather than a recognition of His constant presence.
