Have you found God? What do you know of His character? His personality? His attributes? Do you know Him personally?
Trying
to accomplish what God wants you to do—without knowing Him and having a
relationship with Him—is like using your phone or computer without
charging it. It’s similar to starting on a trip without properly
charging your phone, only to realize that when you most need it, it’s
just a blank screen. You might as well have no phone at all! Electronics
depend on electricity.
We depend on God. Our personal knowledge
of and relationship with God is our power. Living the Christian life
without charging ourselves is impossible. We can’t live the Christian
life without being connected to the One who authored it, because the
Author Himself is our essential power source. Unfortunately, we often
forget to plug ourselves in, but still expect to be able to function
properly. We start off on our Christian journey, without a charged
battery, and forget that we can’t function without "knowing and applying
the character of God.”
Finding Him sparks a desire in
girls to go deeper than external actions, and to find God. For personal,
group or classroom use, it provides scripture, reflection, practical
goals, assignments and discussion, facilitating a foundational knowledge
of God. Finding Him presents four ways in which God relates to
us, and three of His characteristics which are evident in each
relationship. Girls who have, and girls who have not obeyed the gospel
are provided with valuable learning opportunities, encouraging them to
plug themselves into the source of spiritual life, wherever they may
find themselves on their journey.
If we want our destination to be
a home in heaven, we must start by finding our Creator. Without our
Creator, we’re only a blank screen. "For in Him we live and move and
exist” (Acts 17:28).
