God is always with us in our various life endeavours. He knows us even before we were born. He knows the end right from the begining. So to think that God is not close enough to us is an error on our path. Scripture readng in the book of Psalm 103 verse 14 asures us that God Knows our worries from grassroot. He knows our countenance and he doesn't forget that we are men with imperfection.
But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all men
This verse tells us that Jesus knows the heart of all men. He understood their way. Sometimes we don't feel like God is answering our prayers or we don't have that assurance that God is with us. This could happen because we have gone away from the way of the Lord. When we leave the way of the lord, we may feel stranded and this is not good for us. It is not that his hands are too short that he cannot reach us nor that his ears are blocked that he cannot hear but our inequity keeps him from us. So, when we feel the absence of God from us, let us try to change our ways and trace back to God.
Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the Lord of hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return?
