There is a kind of intimacy with God that requires us to stop presenting only the parts of ourselves we think He wants to see.
The faithful part.
The strong part.
The grateful part.
The part that has the right words.
But there are other places too.
The places that are tired.
The desires we do not fully understand.
The questions we are afraid to ask.
The disappointment we have learnt to carry quietly.
The wounds we have carried for many years.
The parts of ourselves we have hidden so well that even we have stopped noticing them.
Jesus is not asking you to clean those places up before bringing them to Him.
He already knows.
And He still draws near.
Perhaps going deeper with God is not about becoming more impressive spiritually.
Perhaps it is about becoming more honest.
More surrendered.
More willing to let Him into the whole of who you are. Let Him into the hidden places of your heart to bring His light and healing.
Because He does not only want your service.
He wants your heart.
“You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.”
Jeremiah 29:13
