The Battle God Calls Us To Enter
“The core battle in everyone’s life is to relate well to God, to worship him, enjoy him, experience his presence, hear his voice, trust him in everything, always call him good, obey every command (even the hard ones), and hope in him when he seems to disappear. That’s the battle the community of God is called to enter in each other’s lives.
When we see that battle as the most important one, it changes our approach to dealing with the lesser but still difficult skirmishes in our life….”
Dr. Larry Crabb, Connecting, Page 150-151
Questions for Reflection:
• Where do you see God at work in your life right now?
• What is giving you hope in your struggles?
• When does fear or anger of despair cloud your vision of Him?
•How might sharing that battle – not simply seeking solutions for the circumstances that have stirred your awareness of struggle – with others help you draw near to God?
