In Matthew 22, Jesus said that the greatest commandment is to love the Lord with all your entire being. But how do we love someone with everything we are when we hardly know him or her?
Unbelievably, we tend to seek out God in our deepest, darkest times, not when things are going good for us. But if we can make the effort to get to know God even when we think things are going great for us, our efforts will go a long way toward understanding our Creator and His purpose for us. We'll come to appreciate His work in our lives and the efforts He goes to in order to mold each and every one of us so that we can not only become effective warriors in His Kingdom, but also so that we can walk beside Him, so that we can walk next to Him as a friend would.
We were created to love the Lord and to have a close relationship with Him. Jesus died so that everyone could be friends with God. In order to have a close friendship with God, we have to take the time to get to know Him, during the good times and the bad. Even when we think we're too busy, we have to carve out some time for God. We have to spend time in worship, prayer and learning about Him, not just on Sundays, but every day. That's really the only way to develop a close, personal relationship with Him. That's the only way to become a friend of God's.
The choice is yours: Wait until the inevitable storm comes raining down misery in your life, pouring defeat into your soul to get to know God and His will for you, or make the effort to know God right now, at a time when things are, hopefully, going good for you.
