7. Bumper Sticker: IF you're FAR from GOD, guess who moved.

Always that feeling that GOD is there, if I can just figure out how to reach out.

I can often do it on behalf of others, I pray when I see others in pain or need.

But I often feel it is egotistical of me to reach out to God for my own needs and often I am confused as to what my needs are.

I pray for His Will instead and often am blessed more because of that.

Yet, I remember having an easygoing relationship with God where we could walk and talk and look at the sunset or a beautiful waterfall together. I remember feeling close. I know He's still there. But where am I? Where did I move to that I don't feel that anymore?

COVID did take me out of certain buildings, but ironically, it is actually catching it that gave me time to find and read this book.

God really does have a sense of humor. An ironic one.
