I’m living my very last days of my 50’s as I’ll be 60 years old on July 27, 2012. As I was meditating on my life this week and thanking God for all He’s done for me…I realized that …..I KNOW GOD!! I KNOW WHO He is, where He is, what He’s done for me through His Son Jesus. I know what He expects of me, I know how much HE loves me. I know how He thinks and operates. I know how to go about questioning Him….I know if He’s angry. I hear when He calls me and I trust when He’s silent. I really know Him. We’ve had a lot of years together now.
Do I know Him 100%? No way! Knowing God has also let me be not as fearful about my life. I know He’ll be there for me…even if I don’t feel Him doing stuff. I don’t go by my feelings…I go by what I know!! I know what the bible says and what the Holy Spirit has confirmed in me. The truth has indeed has set me free.
John 17:3 Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.
2 Peter 2:1 Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.
Message for today: Strive as hard as humanly possible to get to know God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. This is the secret of growing spiritually and having an abundant life while we are here on earth.

Amen! Our pastor also has been talking about getting to know God better and drawing close to Him and listening to Him. Your post reminded me of John 17:3: “And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.” NEW KING JAMES

Tanya, this is right on Girl. I believe God wants us to get to know him more than anything because he is awesome. He is the answer. I keep harping on this on my blog because I believe God is telling me to. So glad he has prompted you too. Our nation, world needs to know him; therein lies our freedom. blessings coming your way…
