I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it. Revelation 3:8
In the most simplest of statements, God’s purpose for each of us is to receive His love, mercy, grace, and forgiveness and then turn around and express it to others. He wants a relationship with us so that we can experience His love, mercy, grace, and forgiveness on a daily basis. When our focus is directed inwards, it is hard to share God’s love with others.
We all need our alone time and Jesus often spent time by Himself after teaching or performing miracles. It’s when our focus is strictly on seeking our own personal pleasure at the expense of relationships with family and friends that we are not following God’s master plan.
We are all promised eternal life with our Father in heaven, so our days on this earth are numbered. Make the most of everyday by putting your relationship with Jesus first, other people second, and yourself last.
