I'm less likely to ask God for help if I've over-eaten, spoken sharply, skipped worship.  The guilt piles up and I avoid him.  But God's not waiting for me to measure up.  He's waiting for me to come to him, and he knows how to make me want to.  These passages say 3 ways he brings me near:  Numbers 24-25, Luke 2:1-20, Psalm 60, Proverbs 11:.

Who or what I turn to in my low moments tells me who or what I really trust.  I may say I trust God, but do I really?  Today's passages help me:  Numbers 16, Mark 15, Psalm 55, Proverbs 11:5-6.

Wouldn't it  be mind-blowing if the sky rolled back and God spoke directly to you about who you are and why you're here?  This is what God did for Jesus.
