But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. — Hebrews 11:6

The foundation of our relationship with God is the atoning sacrifice of Jesus, which we have accepted by obedient faith. That faith is based on the conviction that God not only exists but also really cares about us and our desire to get to know him. He longs to be a blessing to those who seek him. But when we seek him, we discover that knowing and being known by the one and only real God is much more gratifying than any other benefit!
