Does God feel like a mere acquaintance? Not everyone that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Matthew 7:21-23 (KJV)What would your response be? "Lord, Lord, did we not commit the Bible to memory, tell people about you, go to church every time the doors where open, teach Sunday school, give to the needy, and pay our tithes all in Your Name. How can you say You never knew me?"Likewise, Tim and I attended the same small country church for five years. We were in the same Sunday School class and even worked side-by-side in a Christmas play. I watched him lead music every Sunday and heard him preach when the pastor was out. I knew he was a man after God's own heart, yet we were mere acquaintances. It wasn't until my loving and noisy mother formally introduced us that we began to grow a personal relationship, eventually producing a God-fearing, wonderfully fulfilling marriage.
