When we are hungry, so to speak—when we want things—our senses kick in to all the same things that the nations of the world seek after. And we go to God, hoping He will give us those same things. But instead of giving us what we asked for, He offers us something else instead—something far more valuable than all the things in the world.
He offers us a relationship.
And not a long‐distance relationship. He offers us an intimate relationship—an intimacy that is not even known in the most perfect of marriages. He offers us a relationship where no separation exists. He offers us a relationship where He is in us, and we are in Him.
