God is not far away, but right here, wanting a personal relationship with us. He desires for us to find Him in Scripture, to see His resemblance in all of us, and the glory and beauty of His creation all around us. Incorporating specific gratitude throughout our daily prayers helps us to see the world He created through His perspective. It allows us to see ourselves the way He created us, not skewed by a world view too critical for anyone to accomplish. He loves us as we are, right here, right now. He will never give up on us, and made a way for us to pursue holiness all the way to His presence eternally through Jesus.
