When students discover their teacher’s out sick, there can be chaos in the classroom! But when a substitute enters as a proxy in the teacher’s place, she assumes full authority and commands respect. On today’s Focal Point, Mike Fabarez adopts a similar perspective when submitting to worldly authorities.
You can know something about a person, their biography, greatest achievements, famous sayings...but still be a stranger to them. Real relationships require something more. Presence. Pursuit. A genuine willingness to close the distance.
If you want to pursue a deeper relationship with God, be sure to request the book The Pursuit of God by A. W. Tozer.
