Did you know you can literally talk to God anytime, and any place? Please show respect in your answers.
That's what I love about God and my relationship with Hm. I know I can talk to Him anytime and any place. Sometimes, I talk to Him in my mind, or while I'm walking down the street, even in a store, in the car, while getting ready to go out, doing the dishes, or while just sitting. God is always ready to hear from us, anywhere we are, 24/7.
I talk to Him like a friend, because He IS our best friend. Literally saying everything that's on my mind and how I truly feel, without filter. It's wonderful, knowing that He's listening. He hears our every prayer. Sometimes I feel like He smiles, whenever I talk to Him about some good news or how amazed I was with Him. He loves when we fellowship with him.
I love how we can confide in Him, anything that is on our hearts. He wants to listen and be there for us. I also love that He doesn't expect fancy words, but just simply, words that come from us as being genuine and nothing we dreamed up. We don't have to be fancy for God. He just wants to hear genuine words from our hearts. Nothing phony. And He does not judge us when we pray. Once being human His self, He knows how we feel.
He's literally with us everywhere we go. He understands what's inside our hearts, even if we don't say the words to describe how we feel. He's a Father and a friend to us! The Bible even says He knows what we're going to say before we even say it. That's how intimate His relationship with us is, or WANTS it to be!
That's up to us. He won't force His person [b]on[/b] us. He always waits for the invitation to have a relationship with Him. Just like you wouldn't force someone to have a relationship with you or to love you. When people come to us of their own free will, that tells us that they really want a relationship or friendship with us. We can tell from their heart's response, that's what they wish. God is no different.
On certain occasions, I don't really know what to say, but if we are a child of God, the Bible says that if we don't know how to pray because we are emotional or for whatever reason, that the Holy Spirit prays to God FOR US, on our behalf!
Romans 8:26-28 - "We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans, making intercession for us."
For example, when we might be grieving something or hurting so bad, we can't pray, or know what to pray, this is when the Holy Spirit within us, takes over. He knows our feelings and talks to God in prayer, for us.
I thank God for His love and great care and for really understanding how we feel, as well as the great sacrifice He made for us.
