Back to the Basics...

Have you ever felt like you were so far away from God that you couldn't even see of hear Him anymore? Ever felt disconnected or alone? Maybe you've been walking with God for some time now and suddenly you look around and He's not there or you're not where you wanted to be. If so, know this, God didn't move, you did!

The bible tells us in James 4:8, "Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded." So we see that if we will draw closer to God then He will in turn come to us.

So what does it take to get close to God? Well it's a lot like when you play a sport and you have a bad game, your coach may tell you to get back to the basics. Well the basics with God are the simple things like reading your bible, praying, going to church AND BEING A PART OF THE SERVICE, true worship, testifying of His goodness, and surrounding yourself with good people and influences.

So get back to the basics and see what God can and will do through you!!!
