40 Days of Worship and Seeking the Lord Together

40 Days of Worship and Seeking the Lord Together

Dr. Bill Bright

Pathway to Intimacy (March 17-26)

During the first 10 days of our 40-day journey together, we have been on a pathway to intimacy that will take us to the very heart of our Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit.

His heart beats with love, mercy, and tenderness for each of us. The whole story of God is a love story. He is seeking—always seeking to establish or re-establish an ever deepening relationship with us. Remember, our focus during this 40 day is on Jesus. Relax in his presence, hear his voice, and know how deeply you are loved. Enjoy enriching your intimacy with the God who is crazy about you.

"Prayer is first and foremost listening to Jesus, who dwells in the very depths of your heart." –Henri Nouwen

Day 10, Pathway to Intimacy | March 26, 2011


1 John 3:1-3: See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. All who have this hope in him purify themselves, just as he is pure.


Almighty, eternal, just and merciful God, grant us... to be inwardly cleansed, interiorly enlightened and inflamed by the fire of the Holy Spirit... able to follow in the footprints of your beloved Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. - Francis of Assisi

How has God lavished his love on you? As you consider this question, you will be preparing your heart for the second segment of our journey together. Come back tomorrow as we start together on the Pathway to Increased Attentiveness to God.
