Episode 87. Obedience is the Path to God’s Presence and Provision (enough said)

I think obedience is how we know God more deeply, how we connect to His presence. When He asks us to obey His commands, He is literally asking us to obey His nature. He created us in His image. This is a promise: that we take on His attributes when we do the things He does.

When we are obedient, we are so because we trust God. When we obey, we deepen that trust.

My BUOY today comes from deeper water. Seeking deeper trust.

I will obey...

Not because I want to be good. Although I do.

Not because He tells me to. Although sometimes, this is the simplest way to get me off the spiritual couch.

Not because bad things will happen to me, if I don’t.

I will obey because I want to know Him better.

I want His presence to flood my life, my heart, my soul. His distant swell that comes from hundreds of miles out at sea, where only He stands tall in bottomless waters.

Jesus, Luke 6:46

“Why do you call me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do what I tell you?
