Last night with the youth, we talked about how GOD wants you to know Him. Now, that may not be a big deal for some of you but it is HUGE to me. GOD, the LORD, the all powerful, majestic, all knowing FATHER wants me to know Him!
Think about the most popular person you know; I mean, the person that you know that has the most popularity. It could be the president, the Pope, some musician, whoever. Do you really think they care if they know you? Do you really think they care if you know them? I would venture to say that they couldn't care less about me.
However, GOD wants you/us to KNOW HIM! He wants us to have a genuine personal one-on-one relationship with HIM! WOW!
Today's word comes from Jeremiah 9:24, NIV, which reads, "But let the one who boasts boast about this: that they have the understanding to know ME, that I am the LORD, who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth..."
Yes, GOD wants us to know Him; that is awesome! The only way you can get to know someone, though, is to spend time with them, talk to them, listen to them. The only way to get to know more about GOD is to read His word, speak to Him through prayer, and listen when He replies.
Take the time to get to know the LORD! He knows all about me and, yet, He wants me to know more about Him!
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
