The most important thing about Jesus is having Him in your heart; inviting Him in, giving Him full access to every room, talking with Him about everything, sharing all your secrets with Him, asking His advice on everything, and letting Him decorate how He wants to. Then constantly working on your private relationship with Him, figuring out how He speaks to you, so that you fully understand each other. This is going to be different for each person. He is not the author of fear or confusion. He will guide you through love if you let Him. The more you grow, the deeper your relationship with Him gets, the more you can share His love…
You’ve got everlasting arms beneath you,
love all around you,
GRACE to see you through,
and enough strength to make it too.
You’re supported in ways you can’t see,
more than you know,
and the God whose heart beats with love for you
will never let you go.
The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms. Deuteronomy 33:27
