Lot 274 Cell: 847 445-0077 A VALENTINE INVITATION FROM GOD

James 4:8 states: Come close to God. God’s love sent His Son to the cross with a letter written in red; the blood of Jesus inviting us to know and love Him. When we look at a blade of grass; a spider web near the propane tank; a palm tree with barely any roots in the ground, do we see them as a reminder of God’s creativity? As we observe seasons of the year with different manifestations, are we aware of the heart of Him who made them? When we notice these things they spark a conversation with Him and we should be drawn close to God. God’s love letter, the Bible, tells us the truth about knowing and loving God and the reminder of how to avoid evil. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you, resist the devil and he will flee from you. Both of these actions require discipline. Remember, discipline plus determination, not desire, determines destiny. Drawing nearer to God is harder than it seems. It’s more than praying; attending Chapel; casually reading the Bible; sharing His love with others. Make the effort to spend time with Him daily; begin by reading the book of John in the New Testament. Drawing close is to be an outcome of an act of love. Love, if it is real, is always voluntary. Our response to the invitation is to draw near to Him. Do that and see the reality of His love and caring for you. Pray this prayer: Lord, I want to see You, everything about You. Help me to stop and observe any evidence of Your work, Your voice, and Your Presence that I can find in the world and in my life. Please give me the discipline to observe and make You even more real. Draw me close to you as I resist the devil and walk in the reality of your love.
