"for every step we take closer to God"
By Claude Pitout
In life we are all searching for something and in life there is something we all need and may be lacking, we live our stressful lives in search of wealth for temporary comfort and worldly desires in search of pleasure, yet there is something we all need and are lacking. The thing I feel we all search for and may be lacking is love, the greatest command was to love God and I say be loved by Him in return, we all search to love and be loved, through a personal relationship with God we come to find love, not only is God love but we begin to love God and God loves us in return, finding the highest form of love.
In order to have an experience with God one does not necessarily need to live a religious lifestyle or have to go to church but that rather through talks, prayers and communion with God one can form and have their very own personal relationship with God their dad.
“A personal relationship” is based around and rooted in belief, faith and love and helps one to learn to trust and rely on God on a day to day basis in your life. In order to be in right relation with God and to live and experience the fullness of God’s favour and blessings “A personal relationship” teaches one the wisdom of the importance of a path of goodness, to be a good person and to always give out and do good, it then takes you into the principle to love one another as we wish to be loved in order to be in right relation with God. A personal relationship with God does not matter what religion, faith or path you are from as all the streams of a river but lead to the ultimate source God and as a personal relationship should be the base to any religion, path or faith as “are you just religious” or do you truly have a relationship with your God.
In the above picture I have used the two wolves to show you the relationship that we have with our father, the older wolf I relate to being God and the younger wolf I relate to being us, the older more wise wolf rests his chin on his sons neck which to me shows the protective nature of God over us while the younger more innocent and curious wolf looks on into the wilderness with a playful nature, the picture to me symbolises the relationship that we have with God our father, a relationship of father is to son, while we go out into life “the open wilderness” God our father who is more wise protects us from the open wilderness “the dangers in life that we have to face and may also come across”.
A personal relationship with God is a one on one personal experience that we have with God our father and dad and can be done in a quiet moment where we find the space and time or even when we find a peaceful moment like watching the sun set over the ocean, there in this space and time, there in a peaceful moment we enter talks and prayers with God where we get to know and experience God on a close and personal level and God likewise gets to know and experience us on this same level in the comfort of our own home, not in any congregation or gathering.
