God
spoke the universe into existence so that he could have a relationship with you
and I. We were all created uniquely with a single uniting purpose: to be
in a loving relationship with God.
Everything
you see around you is there to support this goal. Jesus is the tangible
embodiment of God that we can understand in human terms. The Holy Spirit
is our friend who is with us always to guide the way.
But God
does not demand this relationship of us. He patiently waits for us as we
live out our lives. We are to come to him in our own time by our own
freewill. The Father is always there, drawing us closer to him daily
as he molds and shapes us. God wants us.
Because
God gives us the space to grow we sometimes lose sight of our need for
God. Especially when we experience success that we do not attribute to
him.
Giving God
the credit does not come naturally to our sinful selves, particularly in the
culture we presently live in. And when we fail, which we ultimately
will, it can be difficult to repent. But repent we must.
We need
God far more than God needs us. When God created us he left a void in our souls
that only
God
himself can fill. God is waiting to fill that space with an intimate personal
relationship with him built on trust and love.
We need
to seek a relationship with Jesus to reach the ultimate self-awareness. We need
God.
