Living Like God is Real (Breathing God In) Along the way I’ve discovered that God is not a feeling, a nebulous idea, an unreachable divinity, or a vending machine where I put in my good works and out comes a blessing. God is real, alive, and working in my life. In the past I’ve experienced God as a vague idea. I found some minimal comfort in saying, “There’s something greater than me,” but I failed to treat God like He was real—a tangible, living part of my life. I wasn’t behaving like God was the central force in my life—alive and as real as my friends, my family, or my husband. There is a vast difference between simply believing in God and in living like God is real and is physically walking by my side. Walking in friendship with the God of the universe, the Creator of everything, should change the way I live. Living in the presence of the All-Powerful God should elicit reverence, respect, awe, and joy. It will transform me. The perfection and excellence of God, if I live in community with Him, will change me—it must! So join me as I strive to truly live in the reality that God is real—tangible, like the clothes I wear and the food I eat. Join me as I fully embrace the God Who left heaven to live among men—Emmanuel, God with us. Final Thought: God is real—like the air we breathe, invisible to the eye, but absolutely necessary. We can experience God with the very essence of who we are, and, just like air, we are completely incapable of living without Him.
