I know that I matter to God & that He is the only one that has the power to help me recover (Principle 2), but there are times that I don’t feel close to God. I’m so
thankful that my relationship with Him isn’t based on emotions or feelings. One thing remains as His love never gives up on me. Emmanuel which means “God with us,” assures me that He is always there. I must learn to walk by faith
and not by sight or circumstance.
During the times that He seems distant or far away, I’m left to feel spiritually dry. These are the times that I must reach out and seek Him constantly; for I know He isn’t the one that moved. He assures me that when I come near to Him, He will come near to me (James 4:8). Today, as I search for that spiritual oasis, I dig deeper into the word, I pour out my heart in prayer, and allow Him to quench my thirst.
O God, you are my God; I earnestly search for you. My soul thirsts for you; my whole body longs for you in this parched and weary land where there is no water. (Ps 63:1 NLT)
