What Do You Do When God Seems Far Away
Aug 24, 2025 • Min. Ryan
When God seems distant, David's example in Psalm 61 offers powerful guidance. During his exile from Jerusalem, David demonstrates three essential responses: crying out to God in desperate prayer rather than withdrawing, clinging to God's protection by remembering His past faithfulness, and committing to praise regardless of circumstances. Like David, we must acknowledge when we feel overwhelmed and seek the rock that is higher than ourselves. God's seeming absence doesn't mean abandonment - His promises remain true even when our feelings fluctuate. Through intentional prayer, trust in His protection, and continual praise, we can bridge the perceived distance between us and God.
