The best Relationship

Its been almost a month since I have been home and I am still learning more and more about my God. One thing that I am learning is to completely focus on him and when i focus on him everything else will fall into place. I was talking to my sister the other day and was telling her how a relationship with Jesus is just like any other relationship. She said she didn't want to go to church cause she would feel like a hypocrite. I told her that she isn't a hypocrite because of that. I explained to her how her and I are sisters and we have a relationship. I told her that she would still come to my house even though i don't smoke, she just wouldn't smoke while she was there. Its the same way at God's house. God doesn't want you to stop coming to his house even if you are sinning. He still loves you and wants you to know that a relationship with him is what you have been looking for.

I understand that thought of feeling guilty when you are living in sin and so you don't want to go to church but I tell you to go and don't feel guilty because just like relationships with people there isn't a rule and regulations you must follow to be Jesus' friend. When you become Jesus' friend. the more you hang with him the more you become like him. You change and you don't even know your changing. Its just like when I chose to date Melissa. I started changing slowly and didn't even know it. First I changed on the inside the it became visible on the outside and the it was evident in my everyday life. I noticed me being grouchy and upset all the time. the kids would call me grouch. The people we hang out with change us is some way.

When we hang out with Jesus he changes us and the more we hang out with him the more he changes us. So don't worry about the "rules and regulations" people put on you or me but just focus on a relationship with Jesus and live in the relationship just like you would with your mother or father or your brother or sister. Just know that your relationship with Jesus will be the BEST relationship you will ever have!!!
