Much of our difficulty as seeking Christians stems from our unwillingness to take God as He is and adjust our lives accordingly. We insist upon trying to modify Him and to bring Him nearer to our own image.”
—A.W. Tozer, “The Pursuit of God”
I shared with our interns the other day a different way of looking at the Bible.
Instead of reading the Bible and asking, “What are you saying to me, God?”, we should read the Bible and say, “What are you revealing about yourself, God?”.
It seems simple when you think about it. We were made in his image. So, that means as we learn more about God, his nature and attributes, we learn more about ourselves.
We make adjustments to our lives.
What is God revealing about himself to you, so that you can live in his image?
