Do You Feel Like God Is Distant?

Updated Aug 28, 2024

Jeremiah chapter 23, verses 23 and 24 remind us that our God is not limited by distance or space. He is with us always, even amid our deep sorrow and our immense heartbreak. So if today you're feeling like Christ is distant, like the Lord isn't sitting with you and all your pain and suffering, remember that he is there. He is simply not in a capacity we can understand or see, but he is always with us. He is not limited by space. He is not limited by distance. He's always with us.
