Psalm 73:28 - But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works.

Regrettably, I have not always tried to be as close to God as I can be. That really doesn't make sense, either, because I have learned from personal experience that this verse is true. The times in my life when I have been closest to God have been times of the greatest joy in my life. Lord, help me never to forget this truth.
