Your Heart, Christ's Home
Becoming Best Friends With God

(Day 11 of "The Purpose Driven Life")



From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live. God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us. 'For in him we live and move and have our being.'
Acts 17:26-28a (NIV)



  1. Ask Him in.

    "This is what the LORD says, he who made the earth, the LORD who formed it and established it-the LORD is his name: 'Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.' "
    Jeremiah 33:2-3 (NIV)



  2. Talk to Him.

    Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.
    1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 (NIV)



  3. Listen to Him.

    The LORD came and stood there, calling as at the other times, "Samuel! Samuel!"
    Then Samuel said, "Speak, for your servant is listening."
    The LORD continued to appear at Shiloh, and there he revealed himself to Samuel through his word.

    1 Samuel 3:10, 21 (NIV)
