Knowing the most exceptional people can never bring us the joy and contentment we yearn for. We chase after worldly acceptance because we forget the treasures of truly knowing the living God. The greatest privilege of all is to know God. Often times people get saved and remain satisfied with this first step- knowing a few facts about God is enough for them.If they are asked "Do you know God?" Most will say that they do. But there is a vast difference between knowing facts about God and personally relating to Him. We should continually grow closer to the Father- always learning more about who He is and what He considers important. If we go through life depending on ourselves, we will never really know God. God reveals Himself to a heart that is honest and transparent not one that is full of pride and arrogance. It is in our brokenness and hopelessness that we discover who the Lord is. Do you have a genuine hunger in your heart to know God? If so ask Him to reveal Himself to you. By spending time with Him in the Word and Prayers you will get to know Him. Philippians 3:8
