Mankind has engaged in a game of "Hide and Seek" with God ever since the beginning of creation.

The Tragedy of Sin
1) Sin makes us hide from God
Jeremiah 23:24
even if i run from God, i don't get any farther away!
2) Sin hides God from us!
Psalms 89:46
Exodus 33:1-3 ; 33:15-16
What is life without God's presence?
living versus existing

Psalms 32:1-4
When we refuse to acknowledge our sins

The Beauty of God
1)God understands the tragedy of sin!
God understands more than anyone the tragedy of sin!
Romans 6:23
Hell isn't created to punish us but the devil!
Romans 5:8
God showed his love to us when we were still sinners!!!
Romans 10:9
2)God wants to be our hiding place!
Psalms 32:5-7
confess ALL my sins! God is our shelter and shield!
when we find significance in giving it all to God, it becomes a situation where we are no longer tormented by anything and we lose our fears and gain comfort in God!

I need to understand that we NEED TO BE FOUND BY GOD!
I NEED to be FOUND BY GOD!
To FIND the comfort ONLY GOD CAN GIVE!
To be rid of all my sins!
To be found by God
psalms 32:33-34
It's time to be found!
I've been hiding from God for WAY TOO LONG!
It's past the time to be found!
To be renewed!
To be re-found!
I need to confess my sin!
