In our relationship, God first of all wants to be in contact with me. It matters to Him more than my success in doing everything right.
I can easily imagine God as distant, cold, and interested only in control. Then faith becomes heavy, and trust becomes almost impossible. But if contact comes first, then even the God’s commandments are no longer pressure, but a promise of fruitful change.
This also changes how I understand prayer. Prayer is not only me talking, explaining myself, or repeating my own thoughts. The deeper question is whether I really want contact with God, or whether I only want to hear myself. That is why listening matters so much, and why silence needs to be shaped by a true image of God, not just by my own inner noise.
When I truly want contact with God, He responds. Not always quickly, not always in a way I can feel, and not always in the moment I expect. Still, the desire itself already matters, and even in dry or quiet times I trust that I am not ignored or abandoned.
