“27“His purpose was for the nations to seek after God and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him—though he is not far from any one of us. 28 For in him we live and move and exist.”
(Acts 17:27-28)
God created us so we could have a relationship with Him. He didn't need us because He doesn't need anything. He created us out of His joy so we could know Him and find our life in Him.
God is not an ogre who is looking for us to make a mistake so He can smite us. He is instead a loving Father who wants to have a relationship with His children.
Do you have such a relationship? Have you opened your heart to Christ who came to give His life to pay for our sin and open that door to a life-changing relationship with God? If so, rejoice at the privilege that is yours. If not, my prayer is that you find Him today.
