Anyway here goes, After getting my wind back and worshiping Him right there and then, not caring if anyone was thinking I am making a fool of myself, I definately would want to ask Jesus to teach me how to strenghten my faith, to show me how to renew a right spirit within myself and others, how to overcome adversities and how to lead people to Him and His teachings, enhance my missionary/discipleship skills. I would ask Him how it felt when Father God told Him to come down to earth and shed His life giving blood for us and also what went through His thoughts when so many persons rejected Him and how it feels knowing that many of us who have not yet seen Him believe in Him and are living for Him, doing His will. I definately would want to know how are my chances of entering the heavenly home He has prepared for all who believe in Him. But most of all I would discuss with Him how much I love Him, how I thank Him for forgiving me, how I am indebted to Him for giving me a better life after this one is over, how I wish I could repay Him for dying on the hard wooden cross because what we are called to do is minor to what He has done but He accepts our meagre offering of self as compensation because of His great love for me and you and everyone. I would ask Him to continue to love, protect, guide, supply all our needs because without Him we are lost, lonely, insecure, afraid, frightened, have no shepherd, no living water,etc. Intimacy with Jesus is having a personal relationship with Him, knowing Him as your own Lord and Savior. He is willing to come into your life if you but only receive Him. He says; "if any man is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in me, as the Scripture said, from his innermost being shall flow rivers of living water." (John 7:37,38) that mean that if we are thirsty for God and want His blessing we should pursue Him. Prayer and trusting God are effective ways of being intimate with Jesus because you can go away to a private place and talk to Him, that is what prayer is, talking to God. When we trust Him to guide us through the Holy Spirit our intimacy with Him builds. Obedience is very important in Christian growth, it relates to keeping His commandments, he said love your neighbour as yourself. If we believe in Jesus and have faith in Him we must trust Him. When we are obedient we become intimate with God because of our personal relationship with Him.
