This chapter was about the different aspects of our relationship with God. He is our creator, judge, redeemer, and much more. But God also desires to be our best friend. He wants to be intimate with me, he wants us to learn everything about him, he wants us to be able to openly communicate with him. Think about your best friends and how you all got to where you're at now. Intimate relationships have to begin somewhere, usually with conversation. God wants us to be open to Him expressing every experience, every problem, everything. Pray pray pray, whether they're short and simple, or long and complex, God loves communicating with us. Although He knows whats going on already, we each have to have a desire to reach out to him. Besides constant communication, continual meditation is another way to strengthen our relationship with God. Focus on his word throughout the day. You cannot sincerely love him if you don't know him. Read his word, meditate on it, and apply it. And just like a best friend God will be there for you in good times and bad, and he will even give you advice and guidance, through prayer and meditation.
