Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden, walked and talked with God.
They didn’t have to strive to get his acceptance or attention they knew they already had it.
They didn’t have to earn his love they walked in it.
When they sinned that’s when everything changed. They hid from their creator, protector, their father.
They then made clothes and had to
start working the ground.
Then throughout the Old Testament people had to sacrifice animals for atonement and acceptance of God.
That was never Gods intention.
He wanted us to have a continuous walking and talking intimate relationship with Him.
When Jesus died and rose again God made a way for us to have that beautiful relationship with Him again.
No more earning or striving to get Gods love or acceptance. Through Jesus ultimate sacrifice we have it.
What does intimacy with God look like?
When I think of intimacy I think of Oneness, Unity, closeness.
Intimacy with God is knowing his heart, feeling his heart beat, knowing what hurts him and what makes him happy.
That’s what God desires of us and that’s what He created us for.He made us so we could have an intimate relationship with Him.
I invite you now to sit still and ask the Holy spirit to sit with you be still in His presence. Don’t talk just be.
God through his Holy Spirit wants your company, he wants your attention. Let him love on you in the silence.
