One can acknowledge the existence of God yet still live far from His presence. To distance oneself from God is to live in opposition to Him, for there is no such thing as neutral ground. A person alienated from their Creator leads a life that is not surrendered to His will. To truly know God is to experience Him personally and be transformed in both mind and action.
Is God a personal reality in your life, or is He a distant figure who fills your mind with fear or indifference? Without His personal guidance, you will instinctively follow your own fleshly desires, drawing you even farther from Him. But with Christ, you no longer have to be alienated. He is your peace—the One who has broken down the walls of hostility—so that you may draw near and experience the fullness of joy in His presence.
