God longs, yearns and eagerly desires for us to fellowship with Him. He never meant Christianity to be merely a set of rules to be followed, an abstract theory that needs to be dissected or a doctrine that has a set of prayers and rituals that we should memorize. He wants us to have a relationship with Him, to experience His love so deeply that He becomes dearer to us than anything els. Because blessed are those who dwell in His house and presence as they will sing praises all day (Ps 84:4). That is true Christianity and that's what each of us believers should have with God.

Wow. This is straight to the heart. I am so guilty of not being kind and compassionate. Sure I follow traffic rules, I mean there isn't much during my 5-minute trip from home to school but I do encounter several annoying jeepney and truck drivers. I look for justice when I am not being treated fairly. But again, bottomline is, we must be kind and compassionate, forgiving just as Christ forgave us.
