Not feeling close to God

Dear Caitlin,
i don't feel as close to god as i used to. i still go to church, and am a great person, but when i go to church, i don't feel as close or as welcome is before.but i still love to go to church. i am very busy and don't have as much time for him. but i don't like feeling far from him and not as close. is this normal?

Dear s,
There’s an old quote, “If you’re not feeling close to God, who moved?” The thing is God is still there for you. He’s waiting for you to spend time with him, to share your heart with him, to ask him for direction…. But for some reason you’re choosing not to. I guess you’ll have to ask yourself why? Why have you moved away from God and are you happy with the way things are going? And if you don’t like it, then just turn around and go back. God is always there, ready to welcome you with open arms.
Blessings,
Caitlin
