Seeking God

When do we seek You, God?

Is it when we are feeling most alone, frightened, anguished? Or is it when we have something special to share that only You will understand?

When else can we seek You, God?

May we call upon Your name, ask for Your presence at other times in our lives? Are You always near, even when we don't acknowledge You?

When are You near, God?

Perhaps we can remember that You are a God who is always near, always ready to laugh with us, not at us. You are a God who dances the jig when we connect with Your spirit and open our hearts to other people. You are a God who delights in our happiness, strength, creativity.

Please remind us that we can seek You, call upon You, come to You and be with You whenever we choose. You will always answer, always be present with us and for us. Amen.
