These past few days we have looked at some of God's characteristics. From loving us to being our provider. That list is not exhaustive to be sure. There is more to God than what we can even imagine. But today's question begs the answer to this: Who is God to me?
Who is God to me? To us? Our answer should be "He is everything to me and more." Because whether we think so or not, that is who he is. It is just that we sometimes forget that while we are going through a hard time when perhaps the chips are down.
And yet, isn't that exactly when we need him the most? Sure it is. And sometimes we realize it and other times maybe we tend to forget. It is at these times we need to especially run, not walk but run to him. Even as a child runs to his parent when he is hurt, we need to run to our Father who wants to take us in his arms to comfort us and let us know that things are going to be ok, and we just need to trust him.
Jesus said in Mathew 7:7-8 Ask and it shall be given you. Seek and you will find. Knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone that asks receives, he who seeks finds, and to him that knocks the door shall be opened to him.
Those are promises to us from a loving Father. They are better gifts to us than anything our earthly father can offer us. And he gives them to us that love him because it is his true nature and in his characteristic to do so.
How about you? Have you asked God that it might be given to you? Have you sought him that you would find what you need? Have you knocked on the God's door to find what he has for you? If you haven't, do it now. He is waiting for you.
Thanks for stopping by Friends. Never give up. Your hope is in God. He loves you. Have a blessed day!
