What up friends? Had a great night last night hangin’ with a couple from Bloomington. My wife and this girl were room mates back at the Soul Mother. I didn’t really know her husband that well back in college, but have been getting to know him a lot since then. They’re awesome people, and “real” people.

Holla’ back if u feel me on this….some people just aren’t “real”. I know I had that problem back in college. It’s sooooo darned easy to just float around and be friends with everyone and la la la. But if someone asked me how I was doing, or even if I asked them how they were doing…no real conversation would ever take place. Know people like that? Are you someone like that?

So what cured me? I got married to a woman more real than me…and guess what? She expected me to be real with her!!! I actually think it’s one of the main reasons I began to love her….she wanted more from me. Most people were okay with just the surface Chadwick….I’m fun, goofy, well-connected, etc. Not Sarah….she wanted to KNOW Chadwick…and now I attempt to model all of my friendships after her advice. (shhhh….don’t tell her though, she’ll get a big head)

It’s the same with God so often. We’d love to be “friends” with God. He’s huge, he’s popular, he’s comforting, and gives us feel-good emotions. But do we really want to KNOW God??? Well, we were all wired with that hunger, so I know we can all agree on it…but have we all realized it? Every day we wake up with the choice to either feed that hunger, or ignore it. But guess what would have happened if I’d ignored Sarah? I would have missed out on a whole lotta’ love. And God?? THE ULTIMATE LOVE RELATIONSHIP. Don’t miss out today. Get to KNOW God.
