Living a life in relationship with Him

I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them. (Ezekiel 36:27 NKJV)

 I believe that the joy, fulfillment, and happiness we hope for are intrinsically connected to being strongly attached to God. This doesn’t mean that we are focused on God alone or that we’re “so heavenly minded that we’re no earthly good,” as the saying goes. No, we each have God-given responsibilities that need to be attended to. We’re responsible to care for ourselves and our family and loved ones, and to fulfill the responsibilities of our work or calling, all of which involve a myriad of details each day.
 Living a life that is strongly attached to God is living a life in relationship with Him. It’s inviting Him into the daily details of our lives, our responsibilities, our family, our relationships with our friends and co-workers. It’s allowing Him to be an integral and interactive part of our lives.
 It is in this interactive relationship with God where we find joy, fulfillment, and happiness, as it is within this kind of relationship that His Spirit moves freely and fully. When we intentionally seek to live in partnership with Him, we put ourselves in the position of letting Him use us for His purpose, and doing so places us in the path of His blessings. —Peter Amsterdam [1]

 God has plans and purposes for each of our lives. But the beauty is that He doesn’t call us and leave us on our own. Jesus actually lives in us to pull off the amazing things that He has invited us into. —Louie Giglio
