Have you ever dismissed God's actions as simply "mysterious ways" that you'll never understand? Today's encouragement challenges that notion with a fresh perspective on our relationship with the Creator of the universe.
At the heart of Christianity lies an astounding truth: God doesn't want to keep you in the dark. Jesus explicitly told his disciples, "I no longer call you servants... Instead, I call you friends." This transformative statement reveals God's desire for transparency and intimacy with you. While servants remain outside the inner circle of knowledge, friends are invited into understanding.
The contrast couldn't be more striking. As one pastor wisely observed, "The devil hides things FROM us, but God hides things FOR us." This distinction changes everything about how we approach our faith journey. When God conceals wisdom, it's not to exclude us but to invite us into the treasure hunt of discovery—a process that builds relationship and intimacy with Him.
Jesus didn't merely come to earth as a distant savior issuing prescriptions for our spiritual maladies from behind glass. He immersed Himself completely in our messy human experience. The God of the universe reserves a table for two with your name on it—a personal, one-on-one relationship that transcends religious obligation. He stands at the door of your heart, knocking gently, waiting to be invited in for unhurried conversation.
Whether you've been sitting regularly with God or it's been months since your last meaningful connection, today's message offers reassurance: He isn't disappointed in your absence. He's madly in love with you, holding your seat at His table. Will you accept the invitation to sit with Him today?
