BOND

Bond has several definitions but when this word popped into my head this morning I was thinking about the close and lasting connection that my daughters and I have.  This bond is very strong just like the super gluing of two materials together.  This close interpersonal relationship has developed over many years.  With every situation and circumstance the bond gets stronger and stronger.  This attachment will never be severed. 

Do you have unbreakable bonds in your life?  There is one bond that needs to be formed before all others.  That is the bond between you and the Lord.  He pursues you at all times, He is waiting for you to attach and bond with Him. 

I found an article that took the word unbreakable and created an acronym.  It explained in eleven stepping-stones how to have an unbreakable bond with God. 

1.     Undivided heart for God. (Cultivate unity)

2.     No fear.  (Let go of fear)

3.     Be in an attitude of prayer always. (Communicate with God)

4.     Read the Holy Scriptures, which God gave us. (Bring truth to your innermost parts)

5.     Enlarge your heart. (Expand the territory of your heart)

6.     Ask God to lead you. (He is your shepherd)

7.     Know the real God

8.     Appoint a specific time to spend with God. (Cultivate your relationship)

9.     Build a safe relationship with others. (Each person is created by god)

10. Listen to God. (Cultivate silence in your life and let him speak to you)

11. Eternal perspective (prioritize what really matters)

Forming an unbreakable bond with God is the most important connection you can make.  He is waiting on you.  He is near you and is constantly seeking you.  He waits to enter your heart.  When you form this unbreakable bond with God He will be in the middle of every situation you encounter.  He is waiting to embrace the opportunity to form a lasting unbreakable relationship with you.  Form the bond today and stay glued to God forever.
