SubscribeI've begun to realize that I have yet to scratch the perverbial surface when understanding intimacy with Father God! What he has available for me and what I'm realizing is a gap analysis study in the making. Why is this? Why is it so hard to accept the intimate nature of God? Maybe because we don't feel worthy … we remember what we said or thought just 5 minutes earlier and become washed over with guilt.
This has become fresh on my mind lately for two reasons. First of all, check out this video of Forever Reign. God has used the words and message found in this song to really create in me a deeper desire to achieve a greater intimacy with him. Secondly, and more resounding is what happens when I arrive home most every day. Goes like this … turn the key to unlock front door … open door … get blown over by two beautiful children screaming DADDY … DADDY!! It's then that everything is ok … it's then that as they sprint into my arms and hold tight I am made mindful of how I should be sprinting with an even more desperate fervor and enthusiasm into my eternal Fathers Arms. However often I don my track shoes and make that sprint, I will say with confidence that it's not enough. Even so, the amazing thing is that God is faithful to the unfaithful no matter what … we are his for all eternity. Let's sprint his way and scream unabashedly … DADDY … DADDY!
