My wife Sheila and I have four grown children and our twin girls are the oldest. They met and married great young men who love them and they have established their families. As twins they enjoy being close and as a result we have the wonderful blessing and luxury of having them live across from us on a Culdesac. We are all next door neighbors. The men they married would be referred to as being our son in laws. But we have such great relationship with them we do not think of them in that way. They are our son in loves. They are just as much family as the rest of our children.

It’s amazing what loving real close relationship can do. It changes the way we perceive those we are in close relationship with and how they perceive us. It changes the way we interact with one another and how we value each other and contribute to each others lives. Close cherished relationship alters our investment of time and effort. Close cherished relationships enhance our lives in ways that transcend other types of relationships. It can be difficult to inconvenience love in a close relationship. There will still be some boundaries and respect for them. But love in a close relationship will lead someone to spend themselves for the other.

Jesus did not come to give you an average relationship with Father, Himself or the Holy Spirit. He came to purchase a close cherished relationship. He came to establish something of greatest value in life. That is why it cost Him his life. Jesus spent Himself for you. Jesus came to bring many sons to glory and introduce those sons to their rightful loving Father. Your rightful loving Father has plenty of time for you and will happily spend it with you if you will allow Him to. His is an everlasting love. He is not mad at you and rejecting you He is desiring to fellowship with you by grace through faith in Jesus. Today offers a new opportunity for you to let the Father saturate you in His love. Enjoy Him today and always!
