God is Near You Now

Meister Eckhart

"No one may say at any time that he is apart from God, either because of his faults, or infirmities or anything else. If, however, by reason of a great fault, you are an outcast, so that you are not able to approach God at all, then, of all times, consider that God is near you, for great harm comes from feeling that God is distant. For let a man go away or come back: God never leaves. He is always at hand and if he cannot get into your life, still he is never farther away than the door."

Meister Eckhart, A Modern Translation, Raymond Blakney
