God are you there?

Where is God? Can you see him? can you hear him? Can you feel him?

If I cry out to God "where are you?" "I can't hear you" then it's not God, because he is there, he is always there. We also know that scripture says that he draws near to the broken hearted. Those in need and alone I think are often broken hearted. 

Psalm 34:18

New International Version (NIV)
18 The Lord is close to the brokenhearted
    and saves those who are crushed in spirit.

So he is there when we are hurting. Scripture also tells us that he will never leave us.

Deuteronomy 31:6

New International Version (NIV)
Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for theLord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”

So when we call out to God "where are you?" He is there, what are we doing to listen? Are we seeking to hear him speak? Are we living in his image so others may see him and who he is? 
I know that Go speaks to me in so many ways, through scripture and song, worship and praise, I see God when I watch TV. The more I seek him the more I find him. God is speaking to you, he answers your prayers, are you listening, are you accepting o the answer he I giving to you. God I pray that you pour out among your people. I pray that you use me, let my life be used to honor you. I can't et enough of you. I pray that I see you in everything, I respond to everything in a way that honors you. Thank you God for always being present, for never leaving my side, for the promise that I don't have to do this alone.
