God Cares: The Presence of GodMuestra

God's Nearness

Scripture in Psalm 145:18 reassures us that "Yahweh is near to all those who call on him, to all who call on him in truth." This verse underscores God's intimate presence with those who earnestly seek Him and call upon His name. Through prayer, we express gratitude for God's nearness when we call upon Him sincerely and ask for His guidance. We seek to feel His presence more deeply and to trust in His constant closeness, knowing that He listens to our prayers and is always ready to respond with love and wisdom. Reflecting on moments when we have felt God's nearness, we may recall times of comfort during hardship, clarity in decision-making, or a sense of peace amid uncertainty. To draw closer to Him, we can cultivate a habit of regular prayer and worship, engage in studying His Word, and practice listening for His voice in daily life. By intentionally seeking God's presence and responding obediently to His leading, we strengthen our relationship with Him and experience His nearness in profound ways.

Prayer: Lord, thank You for being near to me when I call on You in truth. Help me to feel Your presence and to trust that You are always close, ready to listen and respond. Amen.
