At times we may think God has better things to do than to think about us, but He does think about us and His thoughts are nothing but good towards us! (Jeremiah 29:11-13) For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
God is always in our midst, but it is us who at times that have left Him. We may do it innocently by looking into magic or turning to mediums for counsel believing it to be harmless, but if we seek God He will be found of us. All God asks of us is that we turn from wrong and do that which is right in His sight (Amos 5:12-15) For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: they afflict the just, they take a bribe, and they turn aside the poor in the gate from their right. Therefore the prudent shall keep silence in that time; for it is an evil time. Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so the LORD, the God of hosts, shall be with you, as ye have spoken. Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be that the LORD God of hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph. (Leviticus 19:31).
God has made a covenant with His people and He will not break it for any reason, and if we love Him we will do as He has asked and we will keep His commandments. If we seek God and not serve strange gods that are many in the earth through various religions we will find Him. The message of Moses was to serve the one true God, and as Moses commanded the people of his day to seek God with all their heart’s the message remains for us as well! ( Deuteronomy 4:26-31) I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto ye go over Jordan to possess it; ye shall not prolong your days upon it, but shall utterly be destroyed. And the LORD shall scatter you among the nations, and ye shall be left few in number among the heathen, whither the LORD shall lead you. And there ye shall serve gods, the work of men’s hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell. But if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul. When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the LORD thy God, and shalt be obedient unto his voice; (For the LORD thy God is a merciful God;) he will not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which he sware unto them.
Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near (Isaiah 55:6).
Because we think in our finite minds we forget that God IS God He is not limited!! HALLELUJAH!!
I stress that to as many that will listen hoping they HWAR what God is saying when He allows me to share that! ππ»β€οΈπ
SO True! You make a very good point. Too many times God is limited and put in a box as we see the world uses Him when they need Him. Just as the true church in Christ serves Him daily, the worlds churches serve Him for an hour or two a week. God Bless You.

Amen! God bless you, too, Julia! ππ»β€οΈ
Iβve had people tell me God has better things to do then worry about their βsmallβ things-Iβve learned not to judge what a small thing is and talk to Him about everything knowing He will take care of things at the right time ππ»β€οΈ
His timing is always perfect!
Hallelujah!
