Closing Remarks (familiarity series)

So, the question is, where do we go from here? The question is as simple and complicated as rededication. Every day is an opportunity to grow in Christ, to rededicate our hearts, to give him more and more of our hearts. Every day is a chance God gives you to be me more like him, to grow in your faith. Every day is a new opportunity, but if we become familiar, we miss the newness of life in every breath.

We should never stop striving for more of God. Is there ever a point where a Christian can say “I have enough of God; I don’t need to strive for him any more than I do now.”? Indeed, there should never be a time as that. Though we may never think we do that, we may do it in a different way, in a more subtle way. Indeed our heart is should be Christ’s home, we should keep no nook, cranny or closet to ourselves. We should never gain a sense of familiarity where our current faith is enough for us, where our current relationship with Christ is deep enough to satisfy us. Truly, we should be swimming deeper each day, may we be satisfied with Christ, but never satisfied with where our faith is. May we always strive to dive deeper, I hope our lives never reflect familiar complacency in Christ.
