This morning’s session was about James 4:8, where it says, “Draw close to God and He will draw close to you.” I believe God is always around us, but when we give Him our full attention—our hearts and our minds—He reveals Himself more. We become more aware of His presence.

That’s my prayer for this morning: that as we look to Him, as we seek His face and give Him more of our attention, He will draw us closer and bring us deeper into His presence and love.

I’ve often heard His love described as a river, drawing us in so we can soak deeply in it. I love that when we come into His presence, even just by imagining ourselves approaching Him, He always welcomes us with love and mercy. We’re able to come before God the Father because we’ve been made pure through the blood of Jesus.

It’s such an incredible joy and privilege to be able to draw near to Him and enjoy that closeness—even when we’ve made mistakes, even when there’s sin in our lives. He greets us with mercy. When we repent and say, “Lord, we want to come close to You, we want to be washed clean from the things that hurt You, us, and others,” He welcomes us. We simply want to enjoy His amazing presence. So draw us close, Lord. Take us deeper. We love being in Your presence.
