He Loves You the Way You Are. But He Refuses to Let You Stay That Way
There are a lot of areas of God that we get very close to understanding, but still get completely wrong. For example, we read that we were made in God's image, so we think He must be like us. Well, it says we were made like God. But our selfish nature twists it to think He was made like us. This might seem arbitrary, but have you ever turned on the interior light of your car while driving at night? The direction and perspective of the light source is far from arbitrary.
This is probably my favorite title so far. Sometimes we hesitate to go to God because we don't know what it'll cost us, or what He will "make us change". But His guidance isn't a cost, nor is it forced upon His followers. It is one of the many gifts that accompany a relationship with Him.
