Grace for your spirit
Behold, the Lord's hand is not so short that it cannot save; Nor is His ear so dull that it cannot hear. But your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God, and your sins have hidden His face from you, so that He does not hear. Isaiah 59:1-2
In the mind of the unbeliever, everything is God's fault. Why doesn't God help us? Why doesn't He answer our prayers? The last time I needed Him, He left me flat. What's wrong with Him? This is a direct failure of not knowing God, not knowing His Word, and not understanding His will for everyone. He is able to save, and He is able to hear, but when we separate ourselves from Him, expecting Him to "bless our mess", He will not respond. God never ever moved. It is us who are always moving. Like the old married couple riding in the car. She said to him, "remember when we were young, and sat so close together riding down the road? Now, we are so far apart, what happened? The husband looked at the steering wheel and replied. "Well, I'm still in the same place, what about you? Yes, what about us? His arms are reaching out and is ears are listening. It is time for us to step up and speak up
