It is the Lord your God you must follow, and him you must revere. Keep his commands and obey him; serve him and hold fast to him. (Deuteronomy 13:4 NIV)
Have you ever wondered why God created everything? The Genesis account gives details about the whole creation process, including us.
We were created for God in order that He would be glorified. He didn't create us because he was missing anything; He was already perfect and complete, and always is. He created us for communion with Him to be in His presence.
He is the One who knows everything about us, and it makes sense that we would want to stay close to Him each day of our life.
"Faith never knows where it is being led, but it loves and knows the One who is leading." - Oswald Chambers
