How is your connection with God?

8/22/2021

Recently I experienced a time when the internet was unavailable and was not able to do my job. I knew there was a lot to be done and no way to do it. I grew anxious and the longer I went without being able to do my job the more restless and anxious I became.

Later, God showed me that this is how we should feel if we ever do something that pulls us away from Him. He wants us to talk with Him every day, more than once a day. Plus, He desires that we listen to Him as well.

When we do something that we need to ask forgiveness for and do not ask God to forgive us we need that “anxious” feeling, that restlessness to remind us that our connection with God needs to be attended to. We, as Christians, need the peace that comes from God for our everyday life.

If you are not in-tune with God, you cannot be the best you that you can be, which is what He wants for us. If your Christian walk leaves you wanting more it is time to call the “repairman” and get that closeness back or even get it for the first time.

When things are right between you and God, you and God can do amazing things together. You are connected to Him, and He gives you peace, joy, love, and a desire to do His will in all things.

Heavenly Father, I ask that you help everyone that reads this get a solid connection with You. One, so strong that the daily struggles of life cannot severe or destroy. One that continues to grow stronger on a daily basis. Amen.
