Why Do We Sometimes Feel So Far Away From God! MCGI Topic Review.

in MCGI Cares Hive6 days ago (edited)

God is always present but most times we are completely unaware of it. If we feel far away from Him,it is because we moved, definitely not God, because nothing can separate us from the Love of this awesome God.

Where can I go from your Spirit?
Where can I flee from your presence?
If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.
If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,
even there your hand will guide me,
your right hand will hold me fast

(Psalm 139:7-10. NIV).

But Sin and guilt can alienate us from God, just like in the case of Adam and Eve who hid from God's presence because they disobeyed the command given to them by God, in the Garden Of Eden.
Sometimes too, we are so busy, preoccupied with life as it were, that we do not have the time for Him.
When trials and temptations come, and we feel that God has abandoned us so much that we get into depression and start having doubts concerning His power or his presence. It is times like these, times that we should hold fast unto His promises in the scriptures and know that He's an ever present help in trouble, a refuge and a strength.

MCGI CARES!


I am @edith-4angelseu and thank you for stopping by my neighbourhood.


Sort:  

The only thing that can separate us from God almighty is sin, God in heaven loves him children and will never stay far from us.

You are right.

Sin takes us far away from God but even though we have sinned, we can pray to God to forgive us and he will surely do that

Yes, our God is merciful.

God is always near us, it is our sins that make us far from God.

You are right.

When we follow God in holiness, we feel His presence around us at all times

That's right.

when we start sin thats when we start going far from God

That is true.

God is always near us. It is sin that creates a wall of separation between us and God. Let us run away from sin in every way.

We should abstain totally from sin.

I liked the Psalm and the reflection, sometimes we are so focused on our tasks and problems that we lose perspective.

A big hug, my frined @edith-4angelseu.

You are so right my friend ❤️
Many Hugs.

God is always near us, he never leaves us, even when we wonder afar off from his presence, just like the prodigal son, if we find our way back to God he is always ready with open arms to recieve us back into the fold

That is so true, He's ever near.
Thank you very much 🙏

Its always a pleasure😊
