Connection — Daily Inspiration

“For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” — Genesis 3:4-6 MSG

I apologize for not getting my Saturday and Sunday inspirations out there. We had a freak lightening storm in our area which knocked out not only our internet but our satellite television.

Sometimes being unplugged from the world makes you realize just how important it is to be connected to things, people, the world and God. Our Savior wanted to be connected to us. He created Adam and Eve for that connection. He saved Noah and his family for that connection. He wanted to know us and have a spiritual relationship with us.

The whole earth will be brimming with knowing God-Alive, a living knowledge of God ocean-deep, ocean-wide. — Isaiah 11:6-9 MSG

God even sent his son to us in order to keep all of us safe. He wanted to maintain that connection so much, he was willing to sacrifice his only son. Now, that's a man with a huge intention.

Connection. God's all about it.

My prayer for you today is to get connected to God, to the people in your life you've unplugged from whether intentionally or unintentionally. Show them that you have a BIG God with BIG intentions for connection.

Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. — 1 John 3:1-3 NIV
