Do You Know God?

Do you know OF God, or do you know God? There’s a difference. Knowing OF God is taking the stance that He exists, but outside of you. It’s as if you exist separately from Him. You may call yourself a Christian, yet only know OF God. But truly knowing God means running to Him first. Surrendering to Him before all else in your life. Learning who He is and trusting His promises. It means realizing you’ve messed up and forfeiting the right to clean up the mess yourself. Knowing God means turning on the lights and seeing His way out of the darkness.

“God separated the light from the darkness.” (Genesis 1:18 NIV)
