God does not change. But the way you see Him can.
What if you took another look—and discovered more of Him?
Sometimes what stands between us and a deeper relationship with God is not a lack of desire, but a clouded view of who He is. Our experiences, circumstances, and assumptions can distort our understanding of His heart, making it harder to love, trust, and praise Him.
Know Him and Love Him: A 30-Day Journey Through the Heart of God invites you to look again.
Over thirty days, Scripture will draw your attention to the beauty of God’s character as He has revealed Himself—merciful and gracious, faithful and forgiving, gentle and tender, powerful and purposeful, and so much more.
Along the way, reflections, questions, prayers, and affirmations will help you linger over these truths and respond to what you discover. As you see God more clearly, you can come to know His heart more deeply—with greater trust in who He is, more reasons to praise Him, and a growing love for the God who wants to be known.
Know Him and Love Him is the second devotional in the Flourishing in Faith series—resources created to help you walk closely with God, grow in grace, and find more of Him in your everyday life.
