Have you ever felt that God was just *really* far away? As though no matter what you did, you couldn't get closer to him? If you have, don't worry--that's a really common feeling that many Christ followers have experienced at one time or another in their lives. Even some of the great heroes of our faith like Martin Luther or Mother Teresa have felt fear over the distance they sense between themselves and God. So, what do we do?
Today, Pastor Paul and Mark look not only at the "why" of feeling far from God but also at the "how" we can start to fix it. It's a very real possibility that God has purpose for his distance--maybe to teach us the honesty of our emotions or the confusion of our feelings. It even could be just to remind us that while we shouldn't ignore our feelings, we shouldn't rely on them either. Instead, we need to remember the truth and not the deceit of our emotions: God is there even when our feelings are fickle.
