God Near and Yet Afar
Psalm 16:8
I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.


There may as well be no God, as far as a great many of us are concerned, in the most important matters of our lives, as a God that we never think about. He is not far from "every one of us"; but we may be very far from Him, and we are very far from Him unless by effort we set Him before us.

(A. Maclaren, D. D.)
