Unlocking the Power of a Deeper Connection with God
As we embark on our spiritual journey, it’s essential to understand the significance of knowing God intimately. The Bible reminds us, “The people who know their God will be strong and do great exploits” (Daniel 11:32). This profound truth sparked a desire in me to delve deeper into the attributes and names of God, leading to a transformative discovery.
Glorifying God and Enjoying Him Forever
According to the Westminster catechism, our primary purpose in life is to “glorify God and to enjoy Him forever.” This revelation was timely, as God had just brought a young man into my life who emphasized the importance of enjoying God. Inspired by his example, I began to cultivate a habit of inviting God into every aspect of my daily life, beyond just my quiet time.
From Asking to Discussing
As I made this shift, my relationship with God began to evolve. I transitioned from merely asking for things to engaging in meaningful conversations with Him. I started thanking Him everywhere – while driving, walking, working, or shopping – at any time, in any place. This practice became a cherished habit, filling my heart with joy and gratitude.
A Privilege to Know God
Today, I savor my relationship with God, recognizing the immense privilege it is to know Him. I’m grateful that He delights in our fellowship, waiting for us to come to Him. His presence brings deep satisfaction, and I’m thankful for the opportunity to know Him intimately.
A Heartfelt Prayer
Father, what an honor it is to know that You delight in our fellowship – that You eagerly await our approach. Your presence fills me with profound joy and satisfaction. Thank You for the privilege of knowing You. Amen.
