WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO HAVE A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD?

Postby JWayne » 15 Apr 2010, 14:46

Having a personal relationship with God is more than a celestial insurance policy that guarantees safe passage to paradise when you die. It has more to do with the here and now. If you get the here and now right, you don’t need to worry about what will happen when you die. The Father who took care of you during your stay on planet earth is trustworthy, and when it’s time for your promotion, He will take care of you on the other side of eternity. You can count on that!

God focuses his love on you right where you are with all your problems and addictions, and He does it now. The Father is a here and now God.

Nothing is too hard for God. After all, He created the universe and everything in it. When it comes to dealing with your problems and turning your life around, He’s in it with you for the long haul, and He is ready to move mountains of difficulty out of your life. God will do more than point you in the right direction. He will also give you the power to make the trip.
