To Know

The idea of knowing God to me can seem overwhelming. Being able to fully comprehend all the aspects of Him at an intellectual level seems a little daunting. But doing things at an intellectual level seems to be where I start and also where I end. After my reading today I got a whole new perspective on the idea of knowing God. Knowing God goes much deeper than this for me now. God wants us to know him at an intimate level and for him to know us at that same depth. This needs to happen in the heart I and not in the head. This intimate level deals with emotions and feelings. God wants to have a relationship with me. He wants to know how I am feeling and how I am doing and not just my name. God also wants me to know how he feels about the things I do, the way I feel, and the way I respond to him. Oh, to be intimate with God and to get him into my heart and out of my head. Tracy
