"The LORD is near to all who call on Him, to all who call on Him in truth."
(Psalm 145:18)
Everyone knows the frustration of trying to get in touch with someone and hitting dead-ends, instead. "Nobody sees the Wizard! Not no one. Not no how!" Or what about those annoying automated phone services - no matter what button you press, you still can't seem to get a real live person on the line! Or how about trying to schedule an appointment with someone of importance ("I'm sorry, her schedule is all booked up right now. Maybe later.")?
As I was reading Psalm 145 today, I was reminded that's NOT how God works. Here is the Creator of the Universe... the Lord God Almighty... the Savior of the World... and Psalm 145 tells us that He's "near to all who call on him." Not "all believers" or "all who haven't sinned" or "all whose heart is right." No. ALL. Period.
What a gift that is... to know God always has time for us. He's ready to be involved in our lives. If only we'll CALL ON HIM. Why wouldn't we?!?
