When God seems Far Away- He is Not.

Imagine you are a parent, your child falls down. The First thing he is going to do is to seek your Face, the First thing he is going to cry out is probably, ' MOM or DAD'. Normal Parents will react by running to their child and embraces them and at this time, the child will be crying his/ her eyes out. 

But When you as a parent choose to react differently when your child falls, telling them it's okay, you are fine, get up and lets go! This time, you realize your child will not be crying. It is an action and reaction thing. Even though your heart ache like crazy when you see your child falls down and wants so much to run over and hug him but you know by doing this, your child actually becomes stronger. 

I Believe this is what God does too, sometimes when it seems like God is far away when we are going through some difficulties, when we fall down and tries to seek his face but he is not there, we think he is not doing anything. we are wrong. Faith is believing when not see-ing. Learn to Trust him. 

Do you know everything happens for a purpose? For His purpose.  After Every Challenge, we might not notice but God knows we are growing stronger and wiser every day. 

If someone throws lemon at you, God can turn it around into lemonade for you! 

Romans 8 : 28
and we know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose. 

When we know that Our parents love us and whatever they do is for our Own good. It is the same thing as our DaddyGod in heaven just that he is Almighty!
