#Relationship with God

#Relationship with God

Somebody who is with you in all times of trouble and will walk with you through all thick and thin in your life that is God and nobody else. My relationship with God and the unprecedented love that I have witnessed in my life cannot be expressed in mere words. My Lord is …
My friend in whom I can confide
A teacher who shows the right path like a guide
My mother, my strength
My father, my support system

From what I recollect is that my relation with God started right from my school days. I remember praying to him if I forgot a particular subject; may be a Math’s book and that particular teacher would not be present on that day. My faith grew from these small instances and my relation grew stronger day by day. I am fortunate to have parents who have inculcated the faith in me right from my childhood. Over the period of time going to college , work, I tried to stick to the teachings in Bible study which means you are not a part of the so called “peer group”…I know many people that who lead a Christian life will agree to this. It is not easy to lead a Christian life in today’s world where a person is judged upon the people with whom you hang out…If you don’t have a group around you ….you are termed as an “Introvert”. A black sheep in the group rather a white sheep among the other black ones in this context. Just being real and honest is unfortunately not acceptable in most societies.
Matthew chapter 7:7 says, “Ask, and it shall be given unto you; seek and you shall find; knock and the door shall be opened to  you”.                                                                                                                                      
Even today for even silly things I just close my eyes and pray. I realize that God is walking with me in every step of my life.
Our relationship with God can be developed on the basis of our own experiences it cannot be made in a day or two. Pray just pray to God before you do anything and you will find him miraculously helping you with it. 

From that I remember an article that I read long back “A mammoth 747 jetliner, while flying over the Pacific, sustained a tear on the side, threatening the lives of the passengers. The pilot however brought the craft back safely to the land. He was interviewed when he came to the land“What did you do when the plane ripped open and how did you bring it safely? He said I prayed to God and worked, he showed me a way.


Finally   “Follow Jesus not just because he can provide but because he can satisfy your deepest hunger the quest for eternal fellowship with him”…
