I have never really thought of God as my friend. Lord. You bet. Creator. Check. Father. Yes. He's my designer and creator, and I am privileged to be called His daughter, but friend? For someone to be a friend means I have to know him or her. And the more I know this person favorably, the more I choose to be in relationship.
In this Thanksgiving season, I am grateful for my friendship with God. I am thankful that in His Son, I have not only salvation but an approachable role model on how to live a fulfilling and loving life. Christ chooses to walk in relationship with me, as I Him. Our friendship is sweet and while I sometimes balk, I am thankful for His loving willingness and ability to hold me accountable for the actions I say I want to live by daily. Thank You, sweet Friend.
