Draw Near to God and He will Draw Near to You

In our culture, it's easy to not need God. We don't have many material things to worry about. Everyone of us knows when our next meal will be, has plenty of clothes, visits the doctor, etc. It's easy to forget that God provides those things. The problem is when we start feeling distant from God. We have to learn to bring ourselves back. We have to begin to depend on God again.

James 4:8 tells us that if we draw close to God, He will draw close to us.

This is our challenge. Draw near to God. Then see if anything changes.

We came up with a list of ways that we could draw near to God each day. If you only focus on one a day, it won't be that difficult. Here is the list and feel free to add to it.

Pray
read the bible
play music/listen to music
develop relationships with others
serving others
being still
