Talking to God

July 31st – Ephesians 3:12

Ephesians 3:12

A.Z. Tozer once said, “We need never shout across the spaces to an absent God. He is nearer than our own soul, closer than our most secret thoughts” Sometimes we may feel that God doesn’t want to hear from us. We think our problems are too small or that He’s too busy to care. These feelings can create a barrier, making us hesitant to reach out in prayer. But Paul reminds us that God cares deeply about every aspect of our lives, both big and small. No concern is too trivial for Him, and His love and attention are limitless. Through Jesus, we can approach God without fear or hesitation, knowing that He eagerly listens to our every word. God delights in our prayers and wants to be involved in all facets of our lives. He is never too busy for us, and His compassion extends to the smallest details of our existence. Let Ephesians 3:12 encourage us to bring all our worries, no matter how insignificant they may seem, to God. He is always ready to listen, offering His presence, guidance, and love in every situation.

June 6th – Psalm 32:3

Psalm 32:3

When I kept silent, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long.”

Admitting when we’re wrong is never easy. Pride and hurt often get in the way when it comes to confessing the truth to ourselves and God. But when we don’t, sin festers in our hearts leaving us filled with guilt; feeling weak, miserable and isolated from the Lord. That’s why confession and transparency with God are so very important. So talk to Him. Draw near to the Lord. Tell Him what you’ve done, and trust in Him to forgive and restore you. Don’t get discouraged.  When you stumble, know that God is always faithful to forgive. He knows we are weak. As James MacDonald says, “God knew we would choose the wrong, so even before we chose the wrong, He chose the right.  God’s love made a way out for us with His begotten son Jesus Christ.” By acknowledging our wrongdoings and sharing them with God and others we trust, we can experience the freedom and relief that come with unburdening our souls.
