If we were to ask a group of people "what is the greatest thing in life?" we would probably get as many answers as there were people. Certainly, many things contribute to a full and happy life, but we hope many would agree that knowing God is absolutely the greatest and most important of all. Without that, everything else loses meaning.
Building, maintaining and often repairing our horizontal relationships is a real-life experience and can be very demanding. We can be so occupied with our relationships with family, friends and associates that we overlook the most critical relationship of all – our personal relationship with GOD. The vertical relationship. We should not settle for just a knowledge of GOD or a belief in GOD, neither will take us to GOD'S Heaven. We must have a personal relationship with HIM.
