so if i like it when people understand me. does god like it when we understand him?
What is my initial reaction?
Dude God I know you let's go hang out.
Then fear...
Do I really know God? What happens when I mess up? Do I really know God? I mean cmon He's like God. What happens when I order Him the wrong flavor of ice cream? I get owned... awkward.
But the thing is God knows us already. =]
So He knows my heart. So if I order the wrong flavor of ice cream. He might make fun of me. But He'll let me know and we can laugh about it instead of Him scolding me and being hurt.
Maybe God is hurt when we don't know Him, similarly when people don't understand us. But it's not a hateful scolding wrathful hurt. It's more of an understanding that we're trying our best to get to know Him.
Yay!
Thanks for this post! This is a big encouragement for some of the decisions I made recently. Yet, there are still many decisions to make. haha I wish they were as easy as ice cream.
