Have you read the story of Adam and Eve lately....... Go ahead and read it now..pay close attention to verse 10....click here
Adam said he was naked and had to hide from God..... Isn't it just terrible that Adam felt that way..... His sin immediately separated him from the Lord....he was ashamed, embarrassed, unclean..... He probably felt guilty, maybe remorseful.....either way though he was too filthy in his own mind to be around his own creator..... haven't you felt that way before..
I am sure we have ALL felt like that at some time or another.... It's hard to confess our sins to Him..... Just like Adam, we want to run and hide and hope that the Creator of all the things we use to hide behind, somehow cannot see through them.....
Surprise though...He does see through all of those things.... and guess what He sees back there in our hiding place........ a soul that He created and longs to be with...... a being that is made in His image and that He breathed His very breath into....... a person who He actually knows personally.....to the point that He knows how many hairs are on your head.... His child.. that He gave His own life for....... who He loves...and yearns to forgive...if we would but only ask.....
As I think about that.....why do we run???..... why do we hide???... lest it be to Run to Him and Hide beneath His wings!
