The love I share with God today is as new and fresh as it was the day I gave my entire heart to Him. That love hasn’t faded. I haven’t grown weary of trying to please Him. If anything, my love for God grows stronger every day. To this day, I cannot wait to enter my home, fall into my “God” chair, take a full breath, and say, God, finally, oh finally! It’s just You and me. It’s great. I’m so glad to have You all to myself, Lord. I love you. I feel His presence so strongly, and He envelopes me with overwhelming peace and joy. 

There is something to be said for having a secret place to meet with God and a “God” chair that takes center stage in your own private Holy of Holies. The world cannot enter the door of your private meeting place. God fills the room and your heart with so much love there is no space left for earth’s troubles and outside worries. That’s what it’s like to be intimate with God. It is significant, fulfilling, glorious! That is what God wants you to experience with Him. 

It is in this private chamber where God’s glory dwells. More than in a church building and greater than what you can experience from a religious ritual, God’s glory dwells within you, in that private place where you can turn over your whole heart to Him. When we allow God to dwell in us, when we walk in His Spirit, we are one with Him. He is waiting to give you some “wow” moments, just as He does with me!
