Sometimes I need a reminder of exactly who God is. I don't mean the endless adjectives we could use to describe Him either - faithful, all-powerful, loving, good, truth. I mean who He is. God is The King, and He rules a kingdom.
A king has absolute power. Absolute authority. He makes the laws and the people follow them. If they don't, there are consequences. That's how it is with God. A relationship with God isn't a democracy, but it's not exactly a dictatorship either. We have free will. We can do as we please, but there are consequences to actions that go against God's laws.
We are His children. We are His servants. We are His. And what an amazing feeling, to know that we belong to The King of Kings.
