БЛИЗОСТЬ ГОСПОДА

When you pray to God, then you cannot imagine His closeness in any other way than that every minute you breathe in Him, move, are enlightened, calm down, are comforted and strengthened - in a word, you live in Him, according to Scripture: “for in Him we live and move and exist. He himself gives to all things life and breath and all things” (Acts 17:28, 25). “The Word (God) is near you, in your mouth and in your heart...if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord and believe in Him in your heart...you will be saved” (Rom. 10:8, 9) (1). When you pray to the Lord, look with the eyes of your heart inside yourself, at your soul; The Lord is there, in your thoughts and in the movements of your right heart, as well as outside you and in every place. He is near you, “in your mouth and in your heart” (Rom. 10:8), and not only in heaven or in the abyss (1). How close the Lord God is to each of us! The thought of living, heartfelt faith - and He is with us, making us happy and cheerful; a ray of undoubted hope - and He is with us, delighting us with things we hope for, as if they were real; a work of love - and He, as love, which embraces everything and contains everything in His love, is again with us in our heart, in our conscience, in the world, testifying to us His life-giving goodwill for the soul!
