In your search for God today, where do you still struggle or have difficulty?
Absolutely. Choosing to pursue God is an active choice. Sure, there are some random freebie days when you wake up and all that’s on your mind is God. But actively pursing God is hard word. It requires discipline, making tough choices, saying Yes to some things and No to others. Some days I just don’t feel like it. Other days I’m too tired. But when I choose to pursue God—through prayer, study, solitude, silence or other spiritual disciplines—He is faithful to reward us with His presence and knowing a little bit more about Him.
What truth about God do you frequently find yourself returning to that seems to be the one truth that matters much to you during this stage of your life and why?
In John 21, Jesus goes prophetic on Peter and tells him he’s going to have a difficult future. Peter deflects. Jesus calls Peter, “You follow me!” Those words echo in my heart. “You follow me!” Don’t get distracted by what anyone else is doing. Press your nose so close into my shoulderblades that I’m the only you see and follow.
