Key Points:

• Our ultimate need is to seek connection with God first. We have to abide in Him. 

• We need to learn how to connect with ourselves. The Lord intended for us to care for our bodies, minds, and spirits. 

• Connection is a call to action. We have to be persistent in seeing how the Lord is calling us to connect with Him in every situation. 

• It’s not meant to be easy but we have to fight to be where the Lord is calling us. We have to fight for connection- in marriage, friendships, family etc. 

• Find God in everything you do, even if that means just sitting in His presence. 

• We must remove the idols in our life and choose to seek God first. 

• Connection invites us into a place of dwelling. We begin to become who God has called us to be when we let Him dwell in us as we sit at His feet.
