God Wants Us; We Need God

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.
