I sometimes think the anthropomorphic image of God is so misleading ,God never says ” Hang on a minute Ive only one pair of hands” or “….and where have you been,Ive been looking all over for you” or”not now Im busy can't it wait till later” or worst still “if you do that again I'm not going to be your friend” I prefer the image of god like the vision of Isaiah in the Temple; a God high and lifted up who says “who will I send and who will go for me” Isaiah 6: What an awesome God.

So similar are our stories in prayer. Especially when there are so many other demands. And yet, God in his wonderful ways, shows up for us,right where we are at. Blessings, elizabeth

So beautiful and true. Time alone with God is difficult when on vacation in close quarters. But as you pointed out, God loves us anyways. It is not our performance, our merit, so none may boast.
