I used to think life was a big circle where at certain points God would feel close, and then at other points He'd feel far away. I was wrong, it's a small circle. Almost everyday feels like that. But no matter how "close" God feels, He still deserves my praise.

" Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
-Philippians 4:4-7
