| God has given us access to His presence and Hisholiness, but He will not force us to use it. Toooften, we are lukewarm in our recognition of God'spresence, and we dutifully treat relationship withHim as an obligation, rather than a priority. BecauseGod is continuously committed to us, even whenwe struggle to be committed to Him, He providesspecific instructions in the Bible to help us move pastcasually acknowledging His presence, to knowingthe fullness of His presence. These are not lawsHe commands us to obey, they are God's counselregarding how we can protect and pursue deeperrelationship with Him. |
