Do you really want to? That is wonderful! Praise the Lord!

I like Rev 3:20...

(Rev 3:20 [KJV])
Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

Welcome to CC. There are many good people of God here to fellowship with. Best of all, the Holy Spirit will draw near you if you seek Him through study of the Word and heartfelt prayers. Jesus wants you to know Him better, He wanted it bad enough to die for it! God bless you on your journey with us,

Hello, you're welcome here. I guess with feeling more close, definitely prayer is good- going to God. And then trusting him, that even if you don't feel anything different that He has not abandoned you. I mean I have trouble with that a lot, when I don't feel close, but then I realize I'm focusing so much on what I feel like I lose track of the fact that God is near us, sometimes whether we feel a certain way or not. I hope you like it here :)

Feeling more close.

Welcome.

If you wish to be near, then call upon Him in truth.
If you wish His to dwell in your heart (as opposed to the periphery),
trust Him -- He dwells in your heart by faith.

Get other Christians to pray the prayer in Ephesians 3 for you,

Hi Rebecca14 and welcome to Christian Chat. I am sure you will gain a lot of insight here. To feel close to Jesus I pray to him every day and every time I need Him. After all, he is my brother. I read God's Word, the Bible, every day. This is my guidebook to life. After all, God is my father. Abide with Him and He will abide in you. God Bless You always.
