Ever notice that people gravitate to those that are kind and accepting? Drawn to spend time with those they feel freedom to be themselves- those that accept, even when the wrong thing is said or done?
The above describes our God. Because of God's love and never ceasing desire to be in constant fellowship with each of us, He has removed the very thing that caused hindrance between us and Him- Sin.
Jesus has appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself. (Hebrews 9: 26) God sent His Son so that we would no longer be sin conscious, rather, Righteousness conscious!
God is always with us, never leaves us- never breaks fellowship with us.
As we renew our mind to what Jesus has done for us, we will gravitate- even desire, more and more to spend time with the one that has Reconciled us to Him before we even asked. Romans 5: 6- 11
When we're conscious of our Right standing before God, solely based on our belief that Jesus' blood has cleansed us from all sin- once for all, we will not shrink back from being aware that God is with us, rather, we will recognize the freedom that is ours to remain connected to Him, aware that He is with us... mindful that He is our very source for change- effortless change!
Forgiven- Once for all: Romans 6: 10, Col. 2: 13 & 14, Hebrews 9: 26, 10: 10, 12, 14, Eph. 1: 7, 1 Peter 3: 18
