QUESTION 18
How Can You Draw Close to God?
“O Hearer of prayer, to you people of all sorts will come.”
“Trust in Jehovah with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding. In all your ways take notice of him, and he will make your paths straight.”
“This means everlasting life, their coming to know you, the only true God, and the one whom you sent, Jesus Christ.”
“In fact, [God] is not far off from each one of us.”
“This is what I continue praying, that your love may abound still more and more with accurate knowledge and full discernment.”
“If any one of you is lacking in wisdom, let him keep asking God, for he gives generously to all and without reproaching, and it will be given him.”
“Draw close to God, and he will draw close to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you indecisive ones.”
“This is what the love of God means, that we observe his commandments; and yet his commandments are not burdensome.”
