God has emotions like ours!

Well, actually I should have written it the other way around. We have emotions like God. It is He who made us like Him and not the other way around. But I wrote that heading for a purpose. We very often forget that God feels like we do! He can feel it so bad that when Israel sinned, He wanted to destroy the whole lot at once. He was fed up with them and rightly so. He waited ten times before He finally said, 'enough is enough' and decided that they would not enter the promised land. There was a time when He said regarding them that even if Noah and Daniel pleaded for them, He would not listen. 
What I want us to know is that we bring pain to the heart of God in numerous ways. He is grieved when we fail to honor Him in our speech or action. He is sad when we treat Him like our slave. He is upset when we treat His holy commands with scant respect. And why is it that we think about it so less? Do we see that we take great care not to hurt someone whom we respect here on earth but somehow treat God on a different level? Do we think that God just doesn't care when we - whom He so lovingly adopted as His own - treat Him as someone whom we met on the street and just waved Him off? If only we have a sensitive spirit that is so desirous to give Him glory in all that we do. He surely deserves it. Yes, we may still continue to cause Him pain but can we at least try to minimize it? God help us all.
