God is not Far from Each One of Us

 “Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.”

‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭10‬:‭35‬ ‭KJV‬‬

We are urged not to relinquish our confident conversation.  Persuasion in God’s achievement in Christ, redefines the idea of reward and confirms what grace reveals.  Jesus Christ defines God’s faith - He is Immanuel - the substance as well as the evidence of all that God believes.  Let’s understand that righteousness is revealed by faith as a gift and not as a reward for keeping the law; because faith pleases God, not good or bad behaviour.  Just love living in the awareness and full persuasion of the closeness of God.  As Paul told those idol-worshipping Greek philosophers in Athens on Mars Hill, that God is not far from each one of us.  Even in our ignorance, indifference or hostility to Him, He successfully reconciled the human race to Himself in Christ!  The Incarnation celebrates that Immanuel means that God has no desire to be without us!  Hallelujah!
