Paul said, As I passed along and observed the objects of your worship, I found an altar with this inscription, "To the Unknown God." What therefore you worship as unknown, this I proclaim to you... The God who made the world and everything in it, the Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands nor is He served by human hands, as though He needed anything, since He himself gives to all mankind life and breath and everything. He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined their preappointed times and boundaries so that they should seek the Lord in the hope that they might grope for Him and find Him. Yet He is actually not far from each one of us, for in Him we live and move and have our being...we are indeed the offspring of God. Acts 17:22-31
Even people who do not know God, know that He is there and exists. God the Creator made us so that we would seek for Him and so that we would find Him.
You will seek Me and you will find Me when you search for Me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:13
What sticks out to me here is that God is not far from us and we will find Him! God is reachable! He is accessible to each one of us! The key is to seek with all our heart... not half-heartedly, but with our whole heart.
This says all humans come from one blood - Adam. We are all brothers and sisters as children of God. God is so big that we cannot fathom it, but we live and move and have our being in Him.
God loves everyone as His children. God loves us so much that He sent Jesus to save us so that we can be with Him forever in heaven.
God shows His love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ Jesus died for us. -Romans 5:8
God does not need anything from me. But, God wants to be with me because He loves me.
He wants a relationship with me, but He wants me to seek after Him... He wants me to want to spend time with Him. He didn't create us to be robots to serve him unwillingly.
Don't we all want that? Don't we all want someone to love us and want to spend time with us? Not just because we told them to or need them to, but because they want to.
Thank you Jesus!
