One of the most amazing things about having a relationship with God is he frees us up to be ourselves
God wants to be real to us–he wants us to see him through our own eyes.
One of the many great things about having a personal friendship with God is that he satisfies.
The parables of Jesus show that he understands you, can help you understand yourself, and help you understand God.
We need to acknowledge what is wearing us out, especially the ways in which we become focused on rules and behaviors.
We can open our hearts up to him by listening, talking, turning, and committing to being close to him.
When we love vulnerability, we will open our hearts to God and others.
God wants to give us the help we need, but we have to be willing to be vulnerable enough to ask him for it.
We'll be vulnerable with God when we believe he loves us, is interested in us, and has a plan for us.
In this week's Mini Quiet Time, we'll look at a story where Jesus had to choose to be vulnerable and what came as a result of his decision.
