Imagine

Imagine for a moment you had a child that cleaned his room without being told to multiple times. Imagine that same child doing the dinner dishes, cleaning the kitchen, cleaning the bathroom, doing homework, cutting the grass, being nice to siblings. He does all this without being asked to do so. Your neighbors and friends and family would be jealous of you having such a wonderful child. Along with all these things being done your child never talks to you, never asks your advice on how to handle a problem, never asks for your help with homework. You say something and they completely ignore you. Never even shows that you are alive. Do you and this child have a good relationship? Only thing people see is that this is a wonderful child for all the stuff they do. They never see the child ignoring you.

This is how God sees us when we do not seek Him out. I know you are an adult you can do what you want when you want to do it. You are right and you are that child and you are a child of God. It does not matter if you are 90 or 9 you are still a child of His and He wants a relationship with you. So are you going to stubbornly go about your life which is incredibly short your own way and ignoring the Father or are you going to finally say that you need Him?
