God Dead? Alive? A sense of self-actualization?
A quality or state of being that one can evolve to?
Would make for a pretty small God wouldn't it! Sounds more like wishful thinking.
If that was all that God was why would you want to be one anyway? Let me tell you
what a real God looks like:
That sounds like a God who is big enough to be considered a real God.
What would a God big enough to create all things be like? Would He care about you and me?
God not only cares, He loves us!
Would you like to get to know this God?
Unfortunately, none of us are worthy of a relationship with such a Mighty, Loving,
and Holy, God. However, the good news is that God has provided a way for us to be
reunited with Him. He sent His son, Jesus, from his heavenly throne to live and
walk among us. Jesus lived a perfect life. He never failed God, the Father. Then
He took our punishment for us by dying in our place. Because He was God, born in
human flesh, and because He was sinless or without fault, His death, the death of
the Son of God, was sufficient to pay the price of all sins for all time.
God does not promise to take away all problems. He promises to go through them with
us. He does not promise to make us successful in the ways or terms of the world.
He promises to fill us with His very own Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the only thing
that can fill that emptiness or longing deep inside each one of us.
Would you like
to begin that relationship right now? Pray! Ask God to reveal to you the ways that
you have fallen short of His perfection. Then ask Him to forgive you. Ask him to
fill you with His Spirit that you may begin to live a life that is pleasing to Him.
Ask Him to touch your heart and reveal Himself to your Spiritual eyes that you may
know Him. Then thank Him for His grace, mercy and love.
Welcome to the Christian
Family.
Find a church, talk to the pastor and tell Him you have prayed and asked Jesus to
forgive you. Then attend the church of your choice this Sunday and Worship God the
