Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you… ~ James 4:8 

Drawing near... 

• When you want to “see” someone clearer you have to "Draw Near!"
• When you want to “hear” someone better you have to "Draw Near!"
• When you want to “get closer” to someone you have to "Draw Near!"

When I draw near, my relationship grows and this verse tells us that Jesus  reciprocates,  He in turn draws near to us.  

I don't know about you, but I want Jesus closer to me in every aspect of my life, drawing near to my family, my finances, my health, just in my everyday  daily walk..  

See I need His counsel, His direction in my daily life, drawing near really means, I must let Jesus into all those areas, give Him control in them, allow the work of the Holy Spirit to speak to those areas.

Worship and prayer are the greatest  ways I know to draw closer to Him, to Jesus, in my prayer I allow God to speak into my heart, I listen for His voice, and when I am quite that is when I can hear Him speak most clearly.  In worship I have this freedom to wash the exteriour distractions away and focus on praising Him, thanking Him for all He is and has done for me.

We had a great time of Prayer & Worship this last week, check out a picture from that event.

I encourage you to press in to draw close to Jesus, allow Him to draw close to the things most important to you, “invite” Him into your personal life, increase your relationship with Him
