God - A Friend for Life!

Have you prayed today?  Have you talked with God today? Are you spending time with God?  I ask these questions because I want to share what some may call a mystery. You see talking to God or praying to God is the same as talking with your best friend for life.   Think about Adam in the Garden of Eden.  The scripture tells us that God and Adam walked in the garden together.  Can you imagine that- walking with God?  Now if they were walking, they were probably talking. Adam and God shared communication regularly, just like best friends do.  How do I know this?  Well when Adam ate of the forbidden fruit, God called out to him, asking him where he was.  God was use to being with Adam everyday; so the day He could not find him, He called out for him.

Let's take a look at Moses. Moses talked to God so much his face shone with the glory of God and he had to cover his face when talking to regular people.  During those conversations with God, Moses was given divine directions on how to accomplish what God had called him to accomplish. Abraham, the father of many nations, talked with God.  God told Abraham that He (God) was going to have a seed (son) and through that seed all the nations of the earth will inherit the blessing.

As I stated before talking with God is like talking to your best friend for life.  He is the way.  He gave and gives you life.  He is the same today as yesterday. He desires your conversation.  He instructed us to ask him, to seek him. and to let your requests be known to him.  He said in Jeremiah 33:3, "Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know."  In this scripture focus on the words "call" and "tell".  These are actions verbs, meaning someone has to do something.  We are to open up our mouths and "CALL" to God and  He will "TELL" us unsearchable things.

Need I say more?  Children of God I urge you to make a wise decision to spend time with God everyday through prayer, conversation and worship.

BE BLESSED as you do!

While Outside

As I sit in a special corner of my house, I have an amazing view of outside.  Not only is this my sit corner, but it also serves as my write...
