The people who related to God best--Abraham, Moses, David, Isaiah, Jeremiah--treated him with startling familiarity. They talked to God as if he were sitting in a chair beside them, as one might talk to a counselor, a boss, a parent, or a lover. They treated him like a person.
PHILIP YANCEY, Disappointment With God
Dear God,
Please become familiar. Please let me feel this afinity towards you that we too can become buddies and talk. That would be wonderful. Have the spirit stay in me continually, please, and guide me in every step of the way. Please help me figure out what to pray for, cause i am at a loss for what is right. Please grant me some familiarity with you, a sense of belonging, no hypocricy. Please let me live for you, and only you....give me a purpose....a task in your grand scheme of things. Please use me whichever way necesary. Please dont let me waste my life.
