Friend

I am so blessed to have such a wonderful relationship with my mum. I can only relate what a parent should be like to the things mum does for me. shes more than just my mum, shes every humanly possible thing to me... Abraham is still inspiring me, "He was even called the friend of God" - James 2:23. i think ive probably sung that song a million times, but the revelation is dawning on me like this day... The thought of God being my Father and still desiring friendship with me also is quite something. Something im definately going to keep in mind today. Im searching for a deeper relationship, but in my mind that was a father-daughter kinda thing. but now im openning my eyes to the friendship part.

is it me or is there sometimes nothing to obey? like here i am, iv made decisions, done what i was told to do, and now what? im waiting for further instruction. haha the Holy Spirit really does bring everything to rememberance...guess which scripture just popped into mind, arrgh i cant quite remember the exact quote - ermm that one about having done everything stand firm...ok will find it later...but my point is that this walk is more than just constant obedience to a list of rules, its also requires the maintenance of relationship. Sometimes when there is nothing left to obey, the only thing to do is to maintain a vital connection with Jesus and to see that nothing interferes with that. and out of this relationship will i be able to know what His will is when a crisis arises because i'm already used to talking to my friend. I long to hear God say im His friend.

Peace, Love and Laughter with my friend Jesus.xx
