Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. (James 4:8 Berean Study Bible)
God wants to have a deeper relationship with you. Ask God to search your heart and show you if there is anything that is offensive to Him (Psalm 139:23-24). Let Him show you verses that apply to your areas of struggle. Write those verses down and study them. Memorize them. Ask God for the strength to give you victory in these areas. As you turn away from these areas of sin in your life, you will draw near to God.
And He will draw near to you. ~ Jeff M Newman
