How can I be close to Jesus?
The way to be close to Jesus is to draw close to Him through His Word and in prayer and by fellowshipping with others who know Him. And you must also obey Him to draw close to Him because when we obey Him, we show that we love Him (John 14:15).

In John`s biography of Jesus, chapter 15, we read Jesus` words to His disciples: "Even as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you. Remain in my love. If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love; even as I have kept my Father`s commandments, and remain in his love. I have spoken these things to you, that my joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be made full" (John 15:9 & 10).

To be close to Jesus, I must choose to follow Him. The best way to follow is to be lead by Jesus--and this means we must obey His Words so we know which way He is telling us to go.
