The only way to have a close relationship with GOD our, Creator, is to pull close to Him. It doesn’t happen by accident, you have to want it. Most people are so busy with their lives they don’t take or make much time for GOD.
We think there are so many important things we have to attend to. Sure, we say we believe in GOD, but for many, that’s about as far as the relationship goes.
We are surely missing out on the most important key to life: Our relationship with GOD.
People ask themselves, what is my purpose? What am I here for? The only one that can really answer that question is GOD. If you want to know how to operate something, you go to the manual; the source.
We can ask friends and family and while their intentions may be good, what if they are wrong? We could be led off course of what we were created to do.
GOD is all-knowing. He knew us before we were even born! He knows us better than Anyone – even ourselves!
We go to physics, read horoscopes, etc., looking for advise and direction. We throw the dice and see what comes up. We take every road but the right one, wasting precious time in our short lives.
We think: “when I get old, I’ll seek GOD, then.” But, the truth is; we are not guaranteed tomorrow. We think: “Well, I want to have Fun now!” I know, I said the same thing, but all I did was waste my time on what I thought was fun. When all the while, GOD had a much better and sure-fire success plan for me.
Believe me, I never thought I would say this – but having GOD centered in my life is FUN! And rewarding and comforting, yeah, exciting…I could go on and on. I really wish I had this ‘key’, this ‘secret weapon’ to life a loooong time ago. Wow, the possibilities!
Too bad I was taking a dirt road…
He has an open door policy. I can tell Him anything – go to Him anytime, He’s never too busy. There is no friend that can give me better advise or direction than The One that created me.
His Word, the Bible, is a wealth of information. I never thought I would actually crack it open, never mind be so intrigued by it! {This from a girl who gets distracted reading a cereal box!}
It’s truly magnificent. I honestly doubted so much before. But, now I KNOW; He is real and His Word is true!
The best thing to do is to ask GOD to come into your heart and ask Him to guide you, to show you the way to Him.
I mess up daily. I’m not perfect. But, I know GOD is working on me. It took me a long time, with a lot of wrong paths, dirt roads….of being off track. But, with GOD’s help, I found my way back home….into His Loving Arms.
