GOD IS=NEAR TO US
SOMETIMES WE WAIT=and wait
For the ANSWERS
To our prayers=NEVER
Seeming to come
But sometimes=we just have to
DRAW a little CLOSER to God
And he will
Draw CLOSER to us
OUR GOD=IS NEAR TO US
“I have WAITED=
WAITED for the Lord
And he stooped toward me”
Psalm 40:2
We wait a LOT
In this life=
IN the grocery store=in the bank
IT SEEMS EVERYWHERE!
It hardly SEEMS FAIR
That we
Have to WAIT ON OUR GOD
Let us draw=NEAR
To our God=let us get
CLOSE to God
“The LORD IS CLOSE
To the brokenhearted=and saves those
Who are crushed in spirit”
Psalm 34:18
“He tends his flock
Like a shepherd=
He gathers the lambs
In his arms=and carries them
CLOSE to his heart”
Isaiah 40:11
“I will bring them near
And he will
COME CLOSE to me--------
For who is he
Who will devote himself=
To be=CLOSE TO ME?”
Jeremiah 30:21
Our psalmist today
IS NOT dwelling on the waiting
ON our God
But MOSTLY on a God--------
WHO STOOPS to us
Who dares=DRAW NEAR to us
Sometimes we have to
CHANGE OUR PERSPECTIVE
On this waiting
And make a CONCENTRATED EFFORT
To draw CLOSE to our God
Who will COME NEAR TO US
WAIT PATIENTLY=for our God
He will surely come
“WAIT for the Lord=
Be strong=and take heart
AND WAIT=for the Lord”
Psalm 27:14
“For the Lord=
Is a God of justice=
Blessed are all=WHO WAIT FOR HIM”
Isaiah 30:18
God is always
CLOSE TO US=GOD IS
NEAR TO US!
He is IN our heart
When we=SAY
Our daily prayers
He is in our CHURCHES=
When we go to MASS=or church service
He is WAITING
In the yellow golden sun=or
In the bright blue ocean=he is in
A CHILD’S SMILE=he is everywhere
GOD IS=NEAR TO US!
Dear Lord=help us=to REMAIN PATIENT
As you move toward to us
In Jesus’ name=and IN the name= of our ALWAYS PATIENT=Holy
Father God!
