What is a Personal Relationship with Jesus Christ?

If you want to have a relationship with someone, you will spend lots of time with them. You will walk, talk, play, and share everything together.Husband and wives,and parents and children often share relationships of love and friendship with one another.

God is the same way. He wants us to have a relationship with Him. All people are separated from God because of sin, but Jesus Christ in His awesome great love is reaching down to His creation with His nail pierced hands.He wants everyone to know Him but he allows us all to make our own choice.

Think about it, if God made us love Him in return, He would be controlling us like we were robots or puppets on a string. God is not like that..

He created us because He loves us and wants us by our own freedom of choice to love Him in return. This is true love.

True love is when one chooses to love and be with another without being forced. God does not desire to be separated from the creation He loved so much, this is why He gave His only begotten Son (Jesus) to die for it. There is no love greater than this kind of love.
"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends" (John 15:13).

Jesus loves you so much and is waiting to have a relationship with you. Are you ready and willing to have a relationship with Him? There is no other decision in life more important.
