"Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you"
James 4:8
God longs for a relationship with us. If you ask how do we know that, we can see it in Genesis; God came in the cool of the morning seeking Adam, He cried out with a deep longing saying "Adam where are you, why are you hiding from me." That is still the heart cry of Our Father today, He longs for a relationship with us; He wants to walk with us and to fellowship with us. Jesus came to this earth to seek and save, that which was lost, not just to save, but also seek. Sometimes we misunderstand Our Father in Heaven; we deem Him as too stern or even unconcerned about our lives. But that is absolutely absurd, if that were the case than He wouldn't have gave His Only Son for us in order to bring us into a relationship with Him. God is crying out for a fellowship with us today, not just on formal level, but to be our friends. We can ask is that even possible; the Bible says God called Abraham His friend; that is what He wants us to be also. God wants to be Our Friend. He wants to walk with us, to be a part of every aspect of our lives. We may be too concerned about our lifestyles, but Jesus says, I shed My blood on the cross for all your sins. Come wash yourselves with My Word, and let me come and make My dwelling in your heart. This day lets become friends, with the only Friend that we'll ever have who will never ever turn His back on us.
