God is here, now, and his speaking to us does not depend on our speaking to him. His thoughts about us do not depend on our thoughts about him. He doesn’t wait to come until he is called. We don’t summon him with our pious practices and diligent spiritual routines. They help us tune in. They open the window through which his light is ready to shine. But he is present to us, whether or not we are present to him.
