A relatively simple concept: in order to be secure, safe, and obedient to God stay away from or distance yourself from any action that could pull you from Him. We are God’s children, those that accept His salvation. He will never leave nor give up on you and me. Raising His children with love rearing us in the fear and admonition of Him, giving a way out of every sinful situation and circumstance. Though life is ugly it’s wrapped in His hand, our lives have purpose and meaning to Him. A spiritual being searching for home trapped inside sinful flesh, my skin will eventually succumb to the will of the Lord. 

I stop reading His Word when under the influence. Always speaking to God it’s not enough for my spirit to just pray. I need to sit in His presence basking like a bath up to my nose. I need to feel His skin on my skin. Breath on my face. I need to feel His hand like a fingerprint on my soul. Please! I need to utter Your name over myself, over those I love, over those I know, over those I don’t know. Never let what you’ve done or not done stand in the way of creating a relationship with God. He goes low to lift high. Wanting every despicable action, word, and thought God is not scared of us because He wants to share Love. Freeing, cleaning and loving us. 

Staying away from God while doing wrong won’t help you get near, “getting better” before going to God won’t help either. He loves us dirty and bare boned nothing to our name, He wants the person barefoot and hideous true to self…He wants the terrified. We have to go to God bent, broken, wrong and busted, as salvation and his word penetrate the heart then change begins. Actions change, thoughts change. Over time, no genie He works at His own pace, get with the rhythm because to fight His divine power is to self sabotage the healing. A relationship with God bears good fruit only. 

Companionship is necessary with Him. Even when I walk away from Him. Just knowing He’s there and acknowledging His presence has impacted every moment of my life. A hot broken mess you really don’t have to listen to me. I know He’s the only reason I’m living breathing not in a hole dead or searching for this world to save me. It won’t but He will.
