A man heard that a very important King had come to town and that He loved to visit people's homes. So he invited Him to have dinner at his house. His house was a big mess but before he had time to clean it up, the King arrived.

"Sorry," he apologized to the King, "my place is not fit for your visit!"

The King laughed and said, "It's ok, I'm not here to see your house but I'm here to see you!"

We sometimes forget that God is not interested in what we have accomplished or believed in our own effort but He only wants to enjoy time with us and to create memories together. For this reason, He is not content with just talking to us but He wants to live inside of us. And when He does, everything contrary to Him (sickness, fear) automatically leaves. We are filling and filling, overflowing with everything that He is: rest, peace, joy, hope, love.
