God is meant to be enjoyed, not just endured or feared.
God wants us to both have our own happy and satisfying life and to help others have an opportunity for that life, too.
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 the Parable of the Sower, Jesus makes it clear that a relationship with him is about understanding.
