Have you ever felt excluded? Like me, I am sure that you have; but let me take that one step further, have you ever felt excluded in a person’s life that you thought you shared an intimate relationship with? If so, then you know the hurt and the questions that come with that. Questions like; “Are they mad at me?”~~ “Do I mean so little to them that they forgot me?” or “Maybe they just don’t love/like me anymore?” All these questions the enemy could use to taunt us with if we let him; however, let me put a different spin on it, “What if GOD asked all those questions when we exclude Him from our life??” {Ouch}.
See, I believe that God does, because He created us to be in relationship with Him. Think about it, when we are in an intimate relationship with someone, we want to be included in every nook and cranny of their life; it doesn’t matter what trivial thing it is….and when we are not, we feel a break down in that intimacy. It is the in’s and out’s of everyday life that build upon the relationship. So, just like it saddens us when we are excluded from relationships in our lives, God feels that same exclusion when we don’t include Him in ours.
