### Why God Goes Quiet A very important test [in life] is how you act when you can't feel God's presence in your life. Sometimes God intentionally draws back, and we don't sense his closeness. A king named Hezekiah experienced this test. The Bible says, "God left him to test him and to know everything that was in his heart." Hezekiah had enjoyed a close fellowship with God, but at a crucial point in his life God left him alone to test his character, to reveal his weakness, and to prepare him for more responsibility. When you understand that life is a test, you realize that nothing is insignificant in your life. Even the smallest incident has significance for your character development...Some tests seem overwhelming, while others you don't even notice. But all of them have eternal implications. – Rick Warren What tests have you recently encountered where you did not feel God's presence?
