Plug into God
Scripture describes God as being a jealous god, "for you shall not worship any other god, for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God" Exodus 34:14.
This description provides you and me the benefit of understanding God's desire for us. Unlike pegan gods, God desires for us to belong to Him. So much that He sent His son Jesus Christ to die as a sacrificial payment for your and my adoption into His family.
How do I fit in to the family? I must connect. Spend time with the Father. Well, like any responsible family member, I must fulfill my responsibility. Also, I must accept the words of my Father as infallable. As a loving, trusting, and obedient child. In Mathew 28: 19,20, 22:37-40, I learn of that responsibility. An invitation to connect with my Father, go fishing.
One of the favorite past times known to man to build loving bonds, Fishing, "And He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” Matthew 4:14.
Are you available? Is your gear ready? Do you desire God as much as He desires you? Spend time with Him listening to His words, but more importantly, doing them, James 1:21-25.
