Introduction
Our experiences in life eventually determine how we pursue God. As a human race, we are set apart from other animal creations in many distinct ways. Humans can feel, have a sense of values, and make decisions that change the course of life. We can look back in time and remember actions that create bad results. We can take that information from the past and make a change for the fu ture.
Many of the decisions we make involve sustaining our daily needs for food, shelter, and other means of general physical survival. However, many of the decisions we make involve the quality of life. Quality of life is not always determined by our material assets but involves the quality of our relationships with others and how we view our own self.
As we consider the things we feel are important to us, the part of us that is more spiritually awakened understands that there must be more to what we call life than what we currently experience. Our experiences in life shape how we feel as individuals. God’s presence in our life provides energy to the process of connecting our feelings with our idea of reality in life. This is a divine heavenly work. This process is the energetic work of God’s love directed to the hearts of man kind.
Personal relationships of any kind are deeply impacted by how feelings are managed. These feelings change over time in the relationship. Any positive relationship matures over time becoming better as events in the relationship cause you to continue being in the relation ship.
As an author, I write based on what I feel with God in our divine relationship. These feelings that inspire writing are a function of my own maturity level in my own divine relationship with God. As I feel God’s presence and unity with me, God and I create together to compose these writings. The goal is not to tell anyone how to have a personal relationship with God. The goal is to invite you to explore your own feelings with God in your divine relationship with Him. As you read, you are invited to feel God for yourself establishing your own level of truth based on your knowledge of God’s word and your own maturity in your personal relationship with God.
This book stimulates the part of us that connects with the reality of God’s presence. God’s presence is available to unite with and support God’s unique creative nature in us. As we unify with God in Spirit, we come into a state of divine awareness of who we really are. We become more and more aware of our true identity as a person as the personal relationship we nurture with God matures. The book is meant to guide you in exploring your own feelings. The purpose in writing this book is not for you to feel the same things I feel about your personal relationship with God. The book is an invitation. The invitation is for you to feel how much God loves you as you see how much detail God put into His plan to redeem you back to Him.
The information in this book utilizes biblical references and personal experiences that illustrate examples of the process of reuniting mankind back to God. Basic biblical truths are discussed to connect the pieces together to bring more clarity on how this process works to support God’s will in the e arth.
There is a scripture in the bible that is commonly known by any individual who has had or have contact with the religion of Christianity. There are songs written about this verse, sermons preached about this verse, and many other references to this verse in outlining God’s plan of salvation to individuals who accept invitations to give their lives to God.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
When I was first introduced to the Christian religion, I recall this verse being one of the very first bible passages used to describe my part in becoming a Chris tian.
However, one thing must be clarified now. This book is not about the Christian religion. This book is about personal relationship with God.
Religion by itself does not qualify anyone to be in a personal relationship with God. Just as being in the grocery store with another shopper does not qualify anyone to claim that a personal relationship exists. Yet everyone in the grocery store has the same goal. Finding something to eat. The grocery store shelves are stocked with many different foods. Everyone in the store gets to choose. If two people in the grocery store make the same choices in food, it does not qualify the two people to declare they have a personal relationship with each other. They may have similar tastes in food but it does not make their presence with each other in the grocery store pers onal.
Many feel that organized religion in the form of an organized Church setting is all about having a relationship with God. Yes, the Church was initially organized to provide a means of supporting an individual’s relationship with God. As organized religion grew, the original purpose got generally lost. This book will not illustrate how an individual can repair a relationship with any particular Church. This book is an invitation to explore your own feelings about your personal relationship with God.


Chapter 1
Getting Personal With The Most Important Person
Let’s discuss the process of God’s plan to redeem man back to God as it relates to personal interaction with God as our heavenly Father, His Son Jeshua, (The correct name for Jesus) and the Holy Sp irit.
John 3:16 starts with an expression of God’s Love for the world, his gift to the world to connect mankind back to God, and the particular action of personal belief. The end result is to obtain everlasting life. Nothing in this single verse from the bible mentions any kind of organized religion or religious pro cess.
The focus will be on God and the individual’s actions toward God. This is being discussed this way because the Church was established to provide a means of pursuing God, but the true pursuit of God is based on having a personal relationship with God.
Let’s use the simple example of a human personal relationship. Good relationships are based on love, communication, and understanding of the way the other person thinks. A level of trust is established, and common beliefs and values are shared. This is a small number of basic building blocks for a personal relationship. There are many more. These tend to be some major ones. The connections we have with people in personal relationships are a natural everyday pro cess.
If a personal relationship with another person is established through a Church, it is not the Church that keeps that personal relationship strong and vibrant. It is the specific effort made by you and the other individual. What am I getting at? I am pointing out a simple human reality to set the stage for a God centered rea lity.
God did not set in motion a plan to redeem man back to him based on a person’s relationship with a Church. God set the plan in motion to establish a personal relationship with Him. God used his only begotten Son as the gift to mankind to make this personal relationship poss ible.
Your personal relationship with people is a matter of the heart. God is so in love with you, until he wants His heavenly relationship with you to be a matter of the heart. The eternal divine matter of the heart changes the state of the mind, body, and soul. This constant change of state causes divine truth to constantly unfold in the relationship. This constant unfolding of more truth refines the perception and increases the awareness of who we are and what we believe. The constant unfolding of more truth brings about more maturity in the personal relationship as more intimate truths are unfolded. This is a process. It is the process of changing what we create with God as individuals. Instead of creating more death centered realities that we live out day to day, we begin to create life centered realities that cause us to receive eternal life which is life everlasting. God created life and God created us to have life more abundantly. The process of having abundant life is demonstrated in the process of nurturing your personal relationship with God.
Abundance is rooted in the fact that all things belong to God and were made by God. The word by itself brings material abundance to mind in its’ simplest terms of definition. Association with someone who has abundance will not make you abundant. The level of abundance would depend on the type of relationship you ha
