But the Lord God called to the man, "Where are you?" Genesis 3:9
Man and woman are hiding from their sin and from God, so he calls out a simple question, "Where are you?" Obviously, God knows exactly where they are. Then why ask? Perhaps he wants them to realize for themselves exactly where they are spiritually - separated from him. He doesn't want them to hide from themselves either. The first step to repentance is to realize you need to.
So look around yourself now. Are you really where you want to be? Are you hiding from God? from yourself? Come out and face God. He is merciful.
