As a follow up to our discussion on Wednesday, there is a profound
difference between
believing in a personal God and
knowing God
personally. Believing in a personal God, that is giving mental assent to the
existence of a supernatural entity, may or may not make a difference in the
life of the believer. Without transformation, belief is empty.
On the other hand we are transformed when we relate to God personally,
knowing
that each of us is accepted just as we are, and
trusting that it’s
possible to interpret everything real in one’s life as a gift and a blessing in
disguise. (
