That is a fantastic question! It's called...called...a relationship because it is a deep and personal faith for those who engage with it at the deepest level of themselves. People who do this interact with their faith so intimately, that they believe they are interacting with God. They may be, they may not be, but they cannot tell the difference. For example, one may go to prayer and believe God "spoke." Maybe God did "speak" to one's heart, but it's also possible the inner voice they "heard" was simply their own system of belief "talking" because the person who wraps their identity and emotions around that system confuse it with God.

If you understand that the Kingdom of G-d is within you, this will help.
When you talk with G-d, He is as near as the mention of His name.
As you spend time talking with Him, you begin to develop an ability to know when His tangible Presence is there. Sometimes it is simply going on faith & over-riding your feelings that He is present, while at other times it is a deep inner knowing He is present...right here, right now.
You may begin to 'sense' things...promptings inside your spirit that guide you to do this or that.
Having a living relationship with the Almighty G-d is definitely real.

Not all relationships are like that. This is a relationship between an Almighty God and His creatures who He made in His image and has called to be His children. He leads, teaches, comforts, protects, and is near to those who fear Him and they follow, adore, enjoy, and glorify Him. It is a relationship on a much higher level than mere drinking buddies. He took on our flesh and laid down His life for us.

Our relationship with God is better than any drinking buddy you will ever have. He is always with us. The fact that we can't see Him and still believe in Him is called Faith. All that He has done for me in my life, no-one will ever convince me He doesn't exist. He is the reason I am who I am. I pray that you find Him and discover the blessings He has for you...

Its better to worshipped a God that can't be seen than those made from clays !... Be realistic !. God is a very special !. Noone or even no creature is same to Him... If He is same like us, He is a human.. If He is a human, he can't skipped from doing sin... Could human give us Life ? Could human created Heaven & Hell ?.. If you're going to be atheis, I could not say more... Try to think why people need religion?... Why they worshipped God ?..

God's desire is to have a relationship with every person. He is always there, knocking on the door, it is up to us to let Him in. And yes, God does commune with me. No, he doesn't eat dinner with me, but He's there with me when I eat. I think that you are probably wondering how does God communicate with His children. One way is through reading His word, the Bible. Another is through prayer and meditation.

God lives within me through His Holy Spirit. At one time I was an enemy of God because of sin and rebellion to Him. I am now forgiven and redeemed to Him through the sacrifice of His son, Jesus Christ.
I speak to Him through prayer.

Ignoring your smart mouth, yes, you can have a relationship with Jesus. It comes with humility however...and this obviously would be something you would first need to acquire.

you are so stupid and ignorant
when we say that we mean that we need to have a bond
we have to purify ourselves to come close to him
no we cant see him physically
no we cant talk to him as having a conversation
but yes we can see his character reflected on the bible
and yes we can pray to him and let him answer our questions and needs
