I have a small pile of books, all of which I would like to reread at some point over this summer. The one I am glancing through this weekend is "A Divine Invitation". The author's points about the degree to how much God loves us is valid, accurate and summed up very well in this book.
I have yet to meet one person who completely understands the vast degree to which God loves us. It seems obvious to us when we see someone else not trusting or resting in Jesus. Perhaps we are tempted to sit and judge someone else's lack of faith? How about we let that person's relationship with God be their business, and focus on our own? (Unless of course you have been asked to join them on their walk and journey; but even then, don't neglect to examine your own relationship with Jesus).
Let us press on to know Him more, for I am sure I am not alone in admitting that I have not experienced all there is to experience about the way Father God loves us. In his chapter titled - From Must To Trust; Steve challenges us to remember that it is about HIM, not US.
"If we would know Him intimately, it's important to understand that HE sets the terms of the relationship. Jeff Imbach notes, "This is God's life and God's purpose, a river of life within us. We do not start the flow and we will not provide the current." page 114.
The author goes on to say, "If you want to dance with God, you had better let Him lead."
So how about we learn to dance?
