Good Morning Jesus...

I wanted to ask all of you about your relationship with Jesus. What is it like? How close are you to him? A week ago from this last Sunday at church, my dad, Jack, showed me how close that a relationship with Him could be. Rick had taught that weekend and had asked my dad if he would lead us off in prayer for the morning and my dad agreed. I wish you could have all been there to hear the first three words out of his mouth, three words that were more telling to me than anything else could have been, three words that showed a familiarity of knowing Jesus with such closeness. "Good morning Jesus," he prayed. You could just hear the bond between them, the intimacy that they share. It is a relationship that is on a first name basis. This is not something you can just make up or have over night. It is something that is worked at continuously with a willing heart. I pray that all of us are eager for that relationship and strive to be so familiar with our King of Kings that you too can be comfortable saying "good morning Jesus."

Love Steph
