God's presence in our lives produces peace, purpose and power.
-
 Peace shows itself by the ability to properly relate to God, other persons, ourselves and our world.
- Purpose provides understanding of God's desires for our lives.
- Power is the ability to do all we were put in this world to accomplish
How intimate and personal is your relationship with God?
To some degree this can be determined by how often you sense His presence in your life.
- Minute - every waking minute.
- Hourly - frequently during the day.
- Daily - sometime during each day.
- Weekly - perhaps associated with religious services.
- Monthly - occasionally through the year.
- Yearly - on occasions like Christmas, Easter or the anniversary of a loved one's death.
- Seldom - at crisis such as death in family or financial reversal.
Are you positive you will live with Him in heaven forever?
Suppose you were in an accident. At the gate of heaven you are asked: "Why should you be admitted?" What would you say?
The Bible says: "God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16).
You can have an intimate relationship with God now, and be sure you will live with Him in heaven forever.
The best news you will ever hear is that God loves you and has made it possible for you to have eternal life! This raises a number of questions:
- What is eternal life?
- How does it express itself?
- Why don't more people have it?
- How does a person get it?
