Returning to God
Spiritual awakening involves returning to God. When God seems distant from us, it is never God who has departed from the relationship. God urged his people through th prophet Malachi.*...Return to Me, I will return to you" (Mal. 3:7). Throughout the historic accounts of revival there are repeated references to th nearness and palpable presence of God in the midst of people> Just as in the days of Malachi when God's people asked, "In what way shall we return?" (Mal 3:7), so God's people are often unaware of how far they have departed from God until He leads them to return In times of revival, God's people suddenly become aware of how far they have stayed from God, and return.

- The strength of someone with Whom "nothing is impossible"
