Are you a friend if God??
Abraham was called a “Friend of God”.
“And the scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,” and he was called God’s friend.”
James 2:23
God help me to become your friend.
I don’t want to be just acquainted with you. Familiar with the idea of who you are and just on the side lines because of what I can get from you.
I want to get to know you on a deeper level, to become your friend.
I want to go for walks in the park with you like you did with Adam and Eve in the garden.
I want to lay back against you and breath like the song writer Kari Job sang and feel your heart beat.
I want to stay in constant dialogue and communication with you God.
Every step of my day and night should reflect who you are in every thing I do.
