1 John 3: 23-24 ERV 23 This is what God commands: that we believe in his Son Jesus Christ, and that we love each other as he commanded. 24 All who obey God’s commands live in God. And God lives in them. How do we know that God lives in us? We know because of the Spirit he gave us. Vacations for me make me long for home more than enjoy a break from it. With all the busyness of the day to day, I long to just sit at home doing little to nothing. It not that I don't love my family, job and the people around me, I just hardly get time to sit around and relax. Home should be a place you long to return to. Consider the word live in our passage today. God wants us to make our home in him and His home in us. He doesn't just want us to go to church, or read the bible, those are great things but He wants us to be connected to him in such a way that we can honestly say- there's no place like home. Yet some people actually think God is out to get them, like the silly gif above of the house dragging the person back in. God should not have to drag people back into himself. He wants those who believe to live in him and he in them. He actually commans this and those who belong to Him should have ears to hear and obey Him. Ask Yourself:
This is truly God's best for and if you do not believe it you are setling for wax- (a lie, something inauthentic). I love the words of the song below: Could it really be this easy That You love me like You say You do I've got years and years of striving When there was nothing left to prove Could it really be this simple Your kindness changes everything It's like Your grace is on a mission To tear down my religion You're all I really need Hallelujah All this time How You love me How You love me Hallelujah It blows my mind How You love me How You love me Oh, How You love me Could it be I'm finally seeing That You're not who I thought You'd be You're not mad and You're not scary And all the shame and guilt I've carried Is why You died for me May God tear down our religion that we would know Him for who He really is and enjoy time at home in Him and Him in us. Have a great day, Loved Ones, and God bless you real good!
