Reaching Out

What sort of gift do you give to the person who has it all?

Consider this: What does the God who created the entire universe, and to whom all things belong, still lack? There’s one thing that God deeply desires but does not have: a relationship with every human being that he created.

God is highly relational, and the story of creation at the beginning of the book of Genesis–and, indeed, the entire Bible–drives toward God seeking to have a relationship with his human creation.

For our part, we tend to view our faith in terms of religious practice or habit. Do you have a relationship with God? Do you spend time talking and listening to God? Do you seek to know God better? What is your response to a God who is reaching out to you?
