Personal God

It is an astonishing claim to say one can have a personal relationship with God. When you say you have a “personal relationship” with a famous person, it means you can get to that person outside official channels; you can call him at home. Other people may know him by reputation, but you know him. You are not just associates, you are friends, and this is the promise God holds out to every Christian … and everyone who wants to become a Christian.
