information vs. revelation

Information is defined as "knowledge derived from study, experience, or instruction." In contrast, revelation is defined as "the act or process of disclosing something previously secret or obscure, especially something true."
 
God convicted the core of me last night. He brought to my attention that I have all this knowledge about him, but do I actually KNOW him? I need to stop. pause.
 
I need to examine where my heart is in relation to him. Do I spend time with God to avoid "trouble" or am I serious about pursuing and knowing God deeply?
 
I want to go beyond legalism: reading, studying my Bible because I feel I have to but because I want to know God. The cry of my life is to intimately know God, not know about Him. There is a huge difference.
