God is someone with whom we can share We all want a best friend--that someone with whom we are comfortable sharing the details of our lives; someone who is there for us in the best of times and in the worst of times. My question is, "does that someone have to be human or can it be spirit?" Human friends enter our lives for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. Should we have more than one with whom we share a lifetime, we have been the exception. Friends who are there for a reason or a season can depart with some degree of anguish resulting for either one or both. We have all been through this and would just as soon not go through it again. Strange, isn't it, that we are left feeling adrift and alone when there is a spiritual friend who has been patiently waiting to embrace us? C.S. Lewis says, "We regard God as an airman regards his parachute; it's there for emergencies but he hopes he'll never have to use it." How very tragic that the one who cherishes our friendship is held at a distance and how tragic that we miss out on so much love because we cannot look past the physical world and embrace the supernatural. How can we be certain God wants to be our special friend? Does God really want to be involved in the minute details of our everyday lives? There are three places in the Bible where the same explanation occurs and it definitely is saying He wants to be completely involved in our lives: ~Matthew 10:30 ~Luke 21:18 ~Luke 12:7 More from Jane Spirit - Finding Hope in a World of Uncertainty |
