Being Close to God

Thou has said seek ye My face,
my heart says to Thee, Thy face, O Lord, do I seek. Psalm 27:9

How close can you get?
How close do you want to get?
It means dismantling the flesh
The world
The desires
All that the world may draw you in to its fantasy and vainglory
The empty promises of gaining attributes that the world has to offer

The kingdom of God is already within you if you are His
Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there!
for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you
. Luke 17:21

We can’t get close enough
I in them, and Thou in Me, that they may be made perfect in one;
and that the world may know that Thou hast sent Me,
and hast loved them, as Thou hast loved Me
. John 17:23

I often wonder what God’s heart looks like inside
Since He is so big that He fills Heaven and Earth,
His heart must also be gigantic, big enough to walk into,
big enough to reside in
Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him?
saith the Lord. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the Lord. Jeremiah 23:24

His Spirit resides in those of us who have opened our heart to Him
But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you,
He that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies
by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. Romans 8:11

How close can we get?
Never close enough
The more you know Him, the more you love Him
and the more you want to learn of Him
