What does relationship with God look like?

I have heard about having a relationship with God all my life, but what is that relationship supposed to look like?  That is a question that most people cannot answer without using church cliches'.  What relationship in your life is the best picture of your relationship with God?   Let me use my internet friends to demonstrate.

Is it like my relationship with Max Lucado?  I am on Max's mailing list so a computer sends me an excerpt from one of his writings each week.  Max does not know me at all and I really do not know him.  In fact, I do not even know how to contact him to tell him that I am using his name in this blog entry.  Does this describe your relationship with God?

Is your relationship with God like the ones that I have with John Lynch or Wayne Jacobsen?  Both of these men are Facebook friends of mine and I have communicated with both of them on occasion.  Wayne has even used a couple of my emails to him on his weekly podcast.  But, should you ask either man about me and all you would get is a "huh" because they do not really know me either.   Is this a picture of your relationship with God?

Maybe it is like my relationship with Steve Ranney.  As far as I know Steve and I have never met face to face.  He graduated  from Dallas Theological Seminary several years ago and has been helping me get through some issues that I have been going through these past 11 years in my life as we communicate on line.  For those who have read "Bo's Cafe", it is a "Steven and Andy" type of relationship.  Is this a picture of relationship with God?

Is it like my old friends from High School?  I meet with you and eat with you and have gone to gun shows and helped you moved.  You know me on sight and have a history with me.  Is this a picture of relationship with God?

Do one of these relationships picture your relationship with God or is it some other?  Are you satisfied with your relationship?  It is not up to me to dictate your relationship with God anymore than I or anyone else can dictate your relationship with anyone else.  I am only asking questions that I have been asking myself most of my life.  I have my answers, do you.
