What is the nature of our relationship with God?
Is it active — what we do for God?
Is it passive — He does it all in us and uses us without any response on our parts?
I believe it’s a responsive relationship.
God invites; I respond.
God convicts: I repent.
God forgives; I am set free!
God inspires; I live it.
God speaks; I listen.
I speak; God listens.
I request; God answers.
I obey; God empowers and blesses.
I “hunger”; God fills.
I surrender; God’s uses me.
