Closer: Stop DOING and start BEING.

Closer.  As per the thesaurus, which outlines the word closer as immediate, proximate, with in reach, or near. 

Closer to what? 

Closer to whom?

Closer to ________.

Isn't that your desire?

It's my deepest desire that you, whoever you are, become closer to your Heavenly Father.  A familiar saying my mother would often say, "stop doing and start being." So today, I challenge you to STOP and simply BE in the presence of God. For he knows your heart, those deep desires, and he is simply asking that you be close to him. 

Can you simply take time to be closer to him?

P.S. And may you take five minutes to STOP and simply listen to "Closer" by Bethel.

  1. The Lord has put it on my heart to actually write a book about exactly what you are saying. Yeah God, You want us to BE with You! I actually JUST sat down to the computer to work on writing when I saw this post as I was about to turn off my FB. Haha - thank You Jesus that Your heart is for us to BE with You. :)
