Intimacy!

1 John 4:18
"Such love has no fear, because perfect love expels all fear. If we are afraid, it is for fear of punishment, and this shows that we have not fully experienced His Perfect Love."

I want to encourage you today to:
"STRIVE TO KNOW GOD FULLY & INTIMATELY!"

Notice that I did not say:
"GET TO KNOW GOD FROM A SECONDARY SOURCE!"
"BUT STIVE TO EXPERIENCE HIS PERFECT LOVE FOR YOURSELF!"

Please understand:
"SOMEONE'S TESTIMONY ABOUT JESUS CAN SERVE AS MOTIVATION!"
"IT CAN EVEN SPARK YOUR DESIRE FOR A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD!"

"BUT TRUE FREEDOM WILL ONLY COME WHEN YOU TRULY GRASP GOD'S PERFECT LOVE FOR YOU ON A PERSONAL LEVEL!"

So once again, I want to encourage you to:
"STRIVE TO KNOW GOD FULLY & INTIMATELY!"
