PONDER THIS

Do you know God, or do you know about God? If you only know about God, you study and learn facts about God, but that is not enough. The way to have a life where you will not fall is to have an intimate, personal knowledge of God.

For years, I used to carry a card in my wallet about my wife. It told all the vital statistics. It told about her size, her shoe size, her height, and various other things. You know it is extremely hard to buy a dress for a woman if you don’t know the size she wears. On that card, I even noted her birthday, anniversaries, and other special occasions so I would remember them. This card told me information about my wife. Imagine you have never met Joyce and you said, “Tell me about your wife.” So, I pulled out that card and handed it to you. You would know about her, but you would not know her. You can sit in a church and get all the facts about God. That is knowledge. But we need an intimate relationship with the Lord.

• What are some things you know about God?
• What does it look like to have a close relationship with God?

PRACTICE THIS

Pray and ask God to show you where you are settling for knowledge about Him; ask Him to help you grow your relationship with Him.
