God – the all-powerful, all-knowing almighty One who created the universe, the stars and planets, and all who have existed since the beginning of time – is a personal God. He created you because He loves you and wants fellowship with you. All you have to do is draw near to Him and, no, He doesn’t stand back and wait for you to reach out to Him. When He sees you drawing near, He approaches you in unison. He moves toward you to embrace you with His big and welcoming arms. All you have to do is still your heart and make your move. He is waiting.
Lord, I think of that song “What a Friend We Have in Jesus” and feel warm in knowing that You are so very close to me as a friend. I love You and want nothing more right now than to be still in Your arms.
