Spread your arms out wide, and ask yourself how close would I like to be to God.

Is that what you want

And is that too far a distance apart

Would you like to be closer than that

Bring your hands closer - a little more. Maybe even allow them to touch

Is that close enough for you, or would  you like it to be closer than that. As close  as your fingers  interlacing, and your hands holding each other tightly - as though they were distant friends, and have at long last met again.

The distractions we have allowed in our lives are designed to capture us and keep us, they have separated us from the God we would otherwise be close to.

The solution now was the solution two thousand years ago – we can be free,

if we will only let God in.
