Can you think that God, like a mother hen, sort of chases us away from the nest, because God thinks we're?

Question

old enough to take care of ourselves, and expects us to be fully what we are -- human beings with amazing potential (individually and collectively)?

JW, i said "away from the nest." I don't feel any distance between God and me.

I am exploring a comparison, and soliciting thoughts on that comparison.

Answer 1

I don't know about you but I sure don't feel that God has chased me away.
I feel His Presence in my life everyday :)
Maybe you've pushed Him away.
