Ill Take a cheese burger with a side of God.

Today i was reading a book from one of my favorite others, The Book is titled Forgotten God by Francis Chan. To sum the book up it focuses on taking advantage and properly understanding Gods promises to us humans. There was one thing Francis talked about that really stood out to me, It was the topic of a real relationship. I was hit pretty hard with this chapter. I mean i have always understood that it was important for us to have God in our lives, but really stop and ask your self why?

Francis quotes a christian author that i feel is very relevant to this question.
"When we are at our wits' end for an answer, then the lord can five us an answer. But how can he give us an answer when we are still supplied with all sorts of answer of our own" - Karl Brath-

I find that most of us desire God for selfish reasons. For example, I often find myself asking God for something that will better me as a person, but i don't take into consideration how that might better his name. Our relationship with the Lord becomes almost selfish. God desires a personable, trust worthy, & devoted relationship. Do you ever stop to think about Gods feeling or even if he has them? According to the bible God created us in his image. So if you take a good look at humanity and our characteristics you can start to understand God a little better on a more personal level. Now next time you are thinking about smoken that weed drugs remember that God has feelings and you are hurting them as you do so!

Now a relationship with God needs to be less personal and more God centered! We need to allow our self to be moved by the lord. God has called us to be his people… God… The creator of the universe! He called you to be his chosen one! So according to the bible that means we need to take our relationship with him further then a prayer every night before we go to sleep. God desires to be your personal friend.

Now if you feel you would like to learn more on how to better your relationship with Christ, I recommend reading this book. The name was Forgotten God by Francis Chan. Just pick it up and start reading, It will change your life for the better.

So I hope this blog has inspired you to go out and peruse God and take advantage of what he has offered to you as a Christian.

God bless and Thanks for reading!

Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt
you at the proper time, casting all your anxiety upon Him, because He cares for you.
