As believers, we were made for intimacy with God. The Lord Jesus gave His life for us so that we might have intimacy with Him. God knows that the more we get to know Him, the more we will know of life - the life we were created to experience. By focusing our thoughts on Him, we will grasp more fully His goodness and be all the better for it. We'll come to see how much we really do depend on Him for everything - from salvation, to strength for each new day, to the next breath we draw into our lungs.
