“Where can I go to escape your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to heaven, you are there; if I make my bed in Sheol, you are there.” Psalm 139:7-8
You see flashing blue lights behind you and you notice you are 15mph over the speed limit ... Bad Cop. You see flashing blue lights in the distance and you are broken down on the side of the road and haven't seen a car in an hour ... Good Cop. We do something wrong and feel guilt or shame and have no desire to repent and move on ... Bad God. We do something wrong and feel guilt and shame and desire forgiveness from ourselves and God ... Good God. We need help but want to fix it ourselves ... Bad God. We need help and actually want help ... Good God.
Lord, thank You for always being there when I need You and especially when, at the time, I don't want You.
