Unit 1
God's Calling to Every Person
There is no part of you that has ever or will ever be hidden from God. From all eternity, He saw everything about you, and He has always loved you. It is because of His love that you exist. He loved you into existence, and His love continues to hold you in existence. His being sustains your being, and His grace surrounds you, offering you help in every moment of the day. God is as interested and as involved in your life now as He was the moment He created you. Nothing that you have done in all the intervening years has changed that. And nothing ever will. For this reason, no matter how uninterested in God you may feel, no matter how angry you might be at Him, no matter how much you ignore Him, disobey Him, or reject Him, He will not abandon you. He has a plan just for you—a plan that will fulfill you and bring you joy for all eternity. He wants you to know that plan, and He wants you to say yes to it. That plan and your yes to it is what this course is about: God’s calling to you.
