I need this and more every day

what if when we felt alone instead of seeking out that companionship in other people we sought out this fulfillment in Jesus. that his closeness would be our comfort...that the presence of the Spirit would fill us in every way beyond any nearness or love any human could pour out on us? that we would actually talk to him (prayer) and build a relationship (which is only possible thru communication)...that he would be REAL to us. what if we trusted and had faith in Him that he TRULY is for us. trust and believe that he knows our hearts, that he delights in showing us mercy, that he IS a good father who knows how to give good gifts, that he IS alive and powerful...that he heals, that he draws near to us, that we are his absolute joy, that we believed that the Father sees us the same way he sees his son Jesus, that the Father's wrath has been satisfied to that the only thing that is showered on us is his grace, mercy, joy, delight, love and everything else that is good and compassionate? what if we truly had faith and believed in Him to the point that no matter WHAT there is absolutely nothing to worry about EVER!!!? that when we screw up He doesn't care and just wants us to keep our eyes on him and keep coming? that when we fall He WILL lift us up and restore us? what if we had a gram of faith? what if we honestly believed that one day we are going to die and meet Jesus face to face and BE MARRIED TO HIM!!!!? what if...
