Where are you??

Well very much in Mumbai! or at Office/Home!! An obvious response when it comes to a question such as that. While living out our lives on this earth in whatever role and whichever place that we are kept in, it is necessary that we stop and examine where we truly are. Running back and forth and striving to achieve all that we have set out to achieve, we may not truly realize our current position.

"Where are you?" was a question that rang out to Adam in the garden of Eden. God asked Adam that question. Adam was given the rule over the garden of God!! But when that question came to him.... he really wan't found in that leadership position. Adam realized he was naked! He realized that he could no longer face God with the same boldness that he did every day in the cool of the evening. He knew that he could no longer walk with God and talk to him freely. Sin had separated him and his dear Creator. The punishment of disobedience, death had entered his life. He was found hiding behind the bushes.

Where is our spiritual life?? Is there anything that is taking away the joy of talking and walking with God? Is there anything that is hindering our communion with Him?

God slew the lamb in the garden of Eden to cover Adam. The lamb of God, Jesus Christ has been slain for us - both for our past, present and future. Let us draw near to God and He will cover us. And we can enjoy His presence again.
