In the beginning of my relationship with God I was amazed at the level of intimacy involved. The best way I can put it is to say it is kind of "romantic". I did not expect God the master of the universe to WANT to talk to me. I remember realizing the first time that He was speaking and thinking you ARE real and you are talking to me? Who am I? I had heard about Him. I went to church every Sunday but was not prepared for the "REALality of God" that only comes from intimacy with Him. One day I took inventory of my life. I had made all the accomplishments that I desired but they did not #satisfy. Something was missing. As I sat in my car watching a movie on my lunch break. The movie is called "God is not Dead" at one point in the movie a very nasty and mean character was in a horrific accident so bad that he should have died as soon as he hit the pavement. BUT not only did he not die then but he lived for a few minutes having an #opportunity to right himself with God by making the #CONFESSION that 1. He realized he was wrong. 2. He believed in Jesus. 3. And accepted Him as His savior and Lord. In that moment the Spirit of God gave me an #understanding of #grace. Even though we miss doing what we should or miss acting how we should God so mercifully extends grace. We all need it. I told God I was finished living for me I had done my personal best at running my own life. I told Him I wanted to live for Him and was making Him the boss. It was all about Him from now on. Over the next few days I began to hear music every morning and began writing music. I began to see and hear things only God can make you aware of. One of my favorites was He began to speak to me in other languages. That is still so cool to me. I just can't get bored with Him He is so loving and present. There is a lot more I could tell you but social media doesn't have enough volume to contain all His wonder. God is not far away He is near to us. He wants to be in a relationship with you.
The most powerful life thing I have said to Him is I want to live for you, what do you want? Then when He told me, I began to do it right away. Do you know what He then asked me? He asked ME what do #I want. 👈.
