Reach up and touch the nose of God!!

Tonight during a worship service at church I was holding my 7 month old son in my arms. When I looked down at him he seemed to be intrigued with my nose and wouldn't stop grabbing on to it. I couldn't help but think that as he was looking up at his father, he was discovering something new and reaching out to see what it was.

I like how God calls himself our heavenly father. The bible says that as we come near to God he will come near to us. (James 4:8) It is then, when we are close to God, that we are able to see new things and reach out and try to figure out what they are and how they work in our lives.

So this week as you are getting closer to God, whether it's reading the bible or praying or however you connect with your heavenly father. I challenge you to look for something new. And if you see it then reach out and discover where it fits in your life.

Mark :)
