Top 10 #1: Life with God is better

For some, coming to relationship with God is so much better than their previous life. They are passionate, driven, and authoritative in the vast difference their life has progressed since experiencing salvation through Christ. For others, to have walked with God...then walked away from Him...and then, by His arresting grace, been brought back is so much of a deeper awareness of His unending commitment to His own work in each of us. That is my story. Over the past several years, God has graciously brought me back to Himself through His Word. While both scenarios are equally miraculous, the second one gives one hope...and patience. Spiritual impatience is often an indicator of mistrust in God's power and ability to redeem any and ALL of our decisions.
Life with God is so much better than life without Him. It is not easier...it is still a yoke and a burden...but it is better...it is a easy yoke...and a light burden. The past decade has taught me just that...and I am grateful.
