I will share that in this episode of the Connecting Faith and Life podcast.[0:00] Intro[4:00] What stops you from being closer to God?[16:45] Final thoughtsBible Verses1 John 1:9Psalm 139Psalm 51Psalm 35Psalm 1091 John 3:1Advent DevotionalGive to Proclaim MinistriesWhat could be hindering a close relationship with God? Confession - not just of sins but of everything. Are you being real with God? God is omniscient and already knows everything, so being honest with Him is crucial. Human relationships often lack transparency, but God's relationship is different.For example, in Psalm 51, David confesses his sins to God. He was open and honest with God, despite his imperfections. God knows everything about us, including our thoughts and motivations. We can trust Him and be open with Him just like David was.It won’t be easy. We tend to fear God’s rejection. But God does not reject us. He wants a close relationship with us.You can improve your relationship with God by spending time with Him through prayer and reading the Bible, but don’t stop there. Make confessions to God and be transparent. God wants us to be real and honest with Him. We’d love to hear from you!
