God is not distant, up in heaven looking down on us, or hiding his face from you because of something you did or something that happened to you. This is the truth he says: “For the High and Exalted One, who lives forever, whose name is holy, says this: “I live in a high and holy place, and with the oppressed and lowly of spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly and revive the heart of the oppressed.” Isaiah 57:15 CSB
