Are you playing peek-a-boo with God? Why do we keep hiding from our source of forgiveness? We shouldn’t feel shame for our sin if we are truly repentant and turn in a new direction in life. Quit trying to run from God.
What are you hiding behind? Quit being religious and hiding behind your symbols and ceremony; it’s all empty without a relationship with God. Besides, there’s nothing we can hide behind when it comes down to it because we are going to be called to account individually. Our ticket is not membership at a church, owning a Bible, or calling ourselves Christian. It is a relationship that is founded in blood, Christ’s blood, and obedience, our obedience. We are not married into the body of Christ for convenience sake but for conviction’s sake.
Chist is looking for you; he’s coming to look for you because he knows you’re afraid and expecially afraid of him. He wants you. The whole reason he came was to find you. He wants to cure your reasons for hiding from Him. But we have to be the ones to admit that we’re hiding. Christ was sent to seek and to save what is lost; that’s you and that’s me.
