Closeness with God never happens by accident. In this session, we explore the reality that while God is always ready to embrace us, we cannot "float" our way into intimacy with Him. Using the analogy of a river, we discuss how the "currents" of the world, culture, and our own desires naturally pull us downstream—away from God. To grow closer to Him, we must make a decisive choice to "paddle" upstreamJames 4:1-10: The call to submit to God, resist the devil, and the promise that when we draw near to Him, He will draw near to us.Luke 15:11-20: The story of the Prodigal Son and the Father's compassionate response to repentance.Psalm 145:18: The truth that the Lord is near to all who call on Him.Click on the link below to access the Walking with Jesus Starter Kit: https://churchofthehillstx.churchcenter.com/people/forms/1119086Giving: https://churchofthehillstx.churchcenter.com/giving===========================JOIN THE COMMUNITYWebsite: https://www.churchofthehills.coYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@churchofthehills0915Spotify: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZ6ni-e3mhEL5bIPZ2tgdCJuq8FOV7zll&si=3umwrvhDG6n6ENOMApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/church-of-the-hills/id1868814427Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/churchofthehillstx?igsh=OXI3b3VkcjAxZGRuFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/1L82iGi3H8/?mibextid=wwXIfr
