Living Lite Today with Ron Lambros

Where is God When I Need Him the Most?


Listen Later

Bridget and I have 6 grandchildren who we, simply, adore. I’ve said on numerous occasions that grandchildren are God’s reward for not killing your kids when they were teenagers…and I agree. They’re a huge blessing and bring so much joy to our lives every day!

 Now, one of the things I marvel at about them is their innocent inquisitiveness, about life, nature, God…just about anything and everything. You talk about any subject, and they’ll have a dozen questions about it.

 The other night during bedtime prayers, we were talking about Heaven and the questions began: What is Heaven really like? If a person has a tattoo now, will they have it in Heaven? and, Exactly, where is God? I have to admit that their questions often make me study my Bible a little bit harder. You just never know what they’re going to ask!

 After I kissed them goodnight and tucked them in their beds, I went downstairs, sat down in my easy chair, and started thinking about the questions they asked, especially, “Exactly, where is God?” Innocent enough, but deep in its implications.

 Well, exactly, where is God? We’re taught that He’s always with us, He’s everywhere. He’s in Heaven, He’s in all places at the same time…there’s nowhere that He’s not there…in good times and bad! But though we know this to be true, do we always believe it, or do we allow the circumstances in our life to blind us to the truths and promises of God?

It’s easy to believe God is with us when things are going smoothly and the way we think they should. But what about those times when they’re not, those times when we struggle to know God is with us, when we experience His silence or feel like He’s a million miles away? Times when we feel like He’s abandoned us, leaving us to handle our difficult situation in our own strength and power, any way we can.

 Well, that’s what I’ll be talking about on my podcast today. I’ll be asking and answering a question that man has asked since time began: Where is God When I Need Him the Most? Stay with me because that’s coming up on this episode of Living Lite Today.
