One thing that is lacking in a lot of Christian lives is the desire to really be with God. If you're in a relationship with a man or woman, you have a great desire to be around them and to spend time with them. Great relationships are the ones where two people can just be in each other's presence, no talking, just being. You simply enjoy being in close proximity to your mate. You just love being around him or her. You don't need gifts or a conversation, just knowing that your significant other just wants to be with you makes you feel special right?
God feels that way about us. He's happy when we just want to be in his presence. When we're not asking for anything, when we're just being in His presence. That's real love. Our relationship with God should be so comfortable that we can just be in His presence. When we can just enjoy the moments with Him, when we can just love him.
I'm challenging you today to work towards a relationship where you can just be content with being in God's presence. It will make a world of difference in your relationship with Him.
