Our attitude even in coming to God is so often faulty. But the humility of God is so great that he doesn't seem to mind.
Richard Wurmbrand records his first prayer to God as follows.
"I said something like this: 'God, I know that You do not exist. But if perchance You exist, which I deny - it is for You to reveal yourself to me; it is not my duty to seek You.'"
He was a proud young atheist playboy and called his prayer, "the prayer of an atheist."
The strange thing is that the god so addressed appeared not to take offence but to answer and Richard Wurmbrand became perhaps the best known Christian leader of his country of the 20th century.
God is humbly prepared to meet us 'where we are.'
