God… Who is He and how does who He is relate to me? 

This is a question everyone asks, whether you are an atheist, agnostic, Buddhist, Muslim or Christian.  Anyone with any religious or nonreligious backgrounds asks this question.  The answer to me is simple and yet complicated all at the same time.  God is the I am.  He is the maker of heaven and earth.  He is who He says He is.  It is up to you to get to know Him and gain a deep relationship with Him, one that is continually growing. 

I believe in God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.  They are three in one.  This is may be an irrational idea.  I have had many debates in my day, many times trying to help people rationalize Christ and Christianity.  I have come to realize you can only rationalize to a point.  At some point you have to come to a decision, a decision for a leap of faith.  I made a leap of faith and there is nothing in the world that could convince me to change.  I have heard my fare share of arguments, rational and irrational.  After making a decision for Christ I have come to know Him intimately.  As I spend time with Him in His Word and prayer I have come to know Him as I would a close friend.  He is my closest friend and a father more loving than any earthly father could ever love.   I encourage you to meet God if you haven’t already.  Know Him, God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.  Know Him, a loving Father and your closest friend.
