If we know and serve the Lord long enough there will be a time when we will experience His silence, and feel like He is far away. Maybe sin has separated us from Him, or we have become so used to His presence that we don’t feel His closeness like we once did. Whatever the reason, we know that we don’t believe any less, and yet for some mysterious reason there seems to be a distance between us. We are like a carbonated drink that has lost its fizz… we are flat. So what do we do when we find ourselves in this lonely place? I recommend that we read and pray the scriptures, and seek new ways to serve Him until we realize He is still close, and our hand is firmly in His once more.
