Christianity is walking and working each day with a senior partner. Missionary in China
E. Stanley Jones described the divine-human partnership : 'God comes close to His children in a way that leaves them free to think and act, yet in a way that awakens the personality to aliveness and alertness of mind and spirit. His guidance is always sufficiently obvious to be found, but not so obvious that it does away with the necessity of thought and discriminating insight.' God's secrets are always 'open secrets' - open, yet sufficiently secret to make us think.
He does not dominates our life, not overriding partnership.
Impurity, pride or resentment can cause blocked channels to our partnership with God.
Hebrews 2:5-18
Jesus was tempted in every ways as a human. In the person of Jesus, we have a God who can sympathise with our weaknesses because he faced the same temptations and difficulties as we do0
