A Guide To Finding & Keeping A Relationship With Jesus

"Most of us battle with the fact that God is distant. Intimacy with Christ is difficult to obtain, & our prayers don’t seem to be heard. But God says, “You will seek Me & find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.” (Jeremiah 29:13). Most of us feel we don’t have enough time for prayer & seeking God. But we don’t even consider giving up our nightly TV time, our weekend movie fests, or our iTunes fetish in exchange for spending time in His presence. First Timothy 5:6 says, “She who lives in pleasure is dead while she lives.” That’s a sadly accurate description of today’s young Christian woman. (Boys too). We can quote our favorite lines from a hundred different movies, but the only Scripture we know is John 3:16. & we wonder why Christ feels distant."
