Is God a faraway God?

"O my God, do not be so distant from me. Come quickly to help me, O Lord, my Saviour" (Psalm 38:22).

Is God a faraway God? If we think of God in this way, we've missed the point. We don't just ask Him to come to us. We thank Him that He has come to us. Jesus is our Saviour (Matthew 1:21). Emmanuel - God with us (Matthew 1:23).  

"I wait with hope for you, O Lord. You will answer, O Lord, my God" (Psalm 38:15).

We look at Jesus, and we are filled with hope. We bring our problem to God. He gives His answer - Jesus, our Saviour.
