Draw Near to God
James 4:8
Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. (James 4:8)
God desires a deeper relationship with you. To demonstrate His love, He gave His one and only Son to die on the cross to pay for your sins. The Bible says in John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life."
You draw closer to God by believing in and receiving His immense love for you. As you open your heart to His love, your relationship with Him will grow. The more you understand the depth of His love, the stronger your desire will be to remain in His presence and draw nearer to Him.
