Be Real

“When you come looking for me, you’ll find me. “Yes, when you get serious about finding me and want it more than anything else, I’ll make sure you won’t be disappointed.” God ’s Decree. “I’ll turn things around for you. I’ll bring you back from all the countries into which I drove you”— God ’s Decree—“bring you home to the place from which I sent you off into exile. You can count on it.
Jeremiah 29:13‭-‬14 MSG

God is looking for the genuine not the half-hearted or no-hearted (as in religious). What do we think of friends that don't treat you0 well, who in fact act as enemies? God is the same. He is drawn to the hungry, the genuine seekers rather than the religious.

How do we know if we have become religious? Have we become an automaton rather than an intentional seeker? I spent 19 years in religion and know exactly what it is like. I don't want religion. I want relationship! Amen!

As I sit on my couch I can smell Christmas. I don't know about your country but in Australia this time of year takes on a totally different smell. It is a mix of vegetation and weather. It is more pronounced in the bush (country). I love it! You can't fake the smell and neither can you fake Christianity. The real thing stands out a mile.

Be real!

Prayer: Lord help me to be alive and real towards you and your creation. Amen!
