Being in the presence of God is important and precious, but there comes a time when we must set out as carriers of His presence.

What is it really like to be in the presence of God, to live in constant relationship with Him?

No relationship was fully-formed overnight; it requires consistent investment. To live nearer to God than ever before requires decisions and preparation like never before.

In our relationships we have the option to invest as little of ourselves as needed to get what we need out of it. Whether it’s friends, family, or at work; we must decide how close to this person we are willing to get. With God we must choose how close to Him we truly are willing to get.
