"I want you to show LOVE not offer sacrifices. I want you to KNOW ME more than I want burnt offerings." (Hos. 6:6,NLT) God may not be so much concerned about some of the things you may do for Him, than whether or not you have a relationship with Him. Intimacy is His priority! The story of Mary and Martha is a clear illustration of the fact that, God wants us to sit at His feet and learn to know, just like Mary did, than to busy ourselves with activities. Many of us think that we would make God happy once we do one thing or the other. But the fact is that, "Nobody can IMPRESS God." Its the little things you do, that catch His attention, and not even the big offerings or sacrifices. You may do your best to prove a point, but what God expects from you is not even sacrifices but your OBEDIENCE. Once you obey Him, it becomes a proof that you LOVE Him. And as your love for Him is expressed, it becomes a confirmation that you KNOW Him. So don't ignore these little things! AB@TWDevotional
