What Does It Mean that God Knows Me?
When you are in relationship with God, you are enough because he is enough.
The “Father of American Psychology,” William James, said, “The great use of life is to spend it for something that will outlast it.”
The moment you start writing your own life story, everything starts to go off the rails. You'll grow anxious, depressed, and frustrated. Life will feel overwhelming, and you'll settle for distractions that keep you focused on the things that don’t matter.
But when you follow in the footsteps of Jesus and recognize you can do nothing of lasting value on your own, this changes your entire framework of reality. When you recognize God as the author of your story, this frees you from the weight of creating your own narrative. When you are in relationship with God, you are enough because he is enough.
Thinking like the Ecclesiastes 11 merchant, only as you invest in this relationship with God will you understand how he wants you to treat others. I write this from personal experience. Why is a relationship with God so meaningful to me?
