Having intimacy with God
The more I spend my time in prayer and talking to God the more intimacy I feel
When I pray it’s not like a list of request I have
It’s mostly prayer of gratitude and thankfulness of what He is doing in my life
When I pray I feel understood and I know God is listening to my every word
I’ve become so close to Him it’s as if I have a continual conversation with Him throughout my entire day
I don’t feel I have to look for someone to fill a void of attention from even my wife anymore but I’m totally dependent on God to give me my sense of companionship
I can’t begin to express how much love and peace I experience all throughout my day
I live in the present moment and don’t take any moment for granted
I’ve come to feel complete and just simply enjoying my experiences by myself and when I’m with others
God has changed my whole desire of our relationship
What brought me to wanting to know God was for the benefits I would receive from Him
But then on my search for Him I’ve developed and changed my prospective of what God meant to me
I’ve known about the life and resurrection of Jesus and believed it but I was listening to false teachers that looked at God as a genie
After I realized God has already done everything for me in order for me to live a life of peace and love
I back pedaled and come to repent of viewing Him as a way to get my own worldly desires
After I saw God in a new light I now know He is forever present with me
There’s times I’m driving down the road and I turn the radio off just to hear what He has to say to me
I’ve also come to the point where I can see God working in my life and going before me making my path straight
I love how He brings to remembrance what He’s said before and gives me understanding of how things worked out as they did
He is a good good father and I look to Him as my provider of now just my finances but for my peace love and joy
I don’t look for circumstances and experiences to have me feel these feelings
I’m so grateful He chose me to live a life of this magnitude and purpose
When you totally repent and lay down your life at Jesus’s feet you are resurrected with Him and the old version of you is dead and He gives you life
I believe God intended for us to live a life of dependence of Him and not to experience fear nor regret
I’ve been on a constant peaceful climb with little to no trials or temptation
I feel a sense of freedom and assurance everything works out for my good as He’s said it will to those who love Him
I’ve dealt with a lot of doubts and no hope for my future up until I found the kingdom of Heaven within me and I’m living under grace and not sin
If you could experience a day in my shoes I believe you would do whatever it takes to achieve this wholeness and peace I feel in every moment of my day
Everything is possible with God and it takes discipline in order to achieve the mind of Christ but it’s totally doable and worth it
I was basically just existing before I turned my life over to God but I’m so thankful for His grace and mercy
I’ve come to realize that with God in my life I can just sit back and experience Him working in my favor and not stress or worry about anything going on in my day to day life
So I encourage you today look to God to fill that void of what you’ve been searching for and ask him to come in and mend you heart and mind to live within His will
I promise you when you embark on this journey you’ll be so thankful you did
