Relationship

"The men turned away and went toward Sodom, but Abraham remained standing before the LORD. ... Then he [Abraham] said, 'May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak. What if only thirty can be found there?' He answered, 'I will not do it if I find thirty there.' Abraham said, 'Now that I have been so bold as to speak to the Lord, what if only twenty can be found there?' He said, 'For the sake of twenty, I will not destroy it.' Then he said, 'May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak just once more. What if only ten can be found there?' He answered, 'For the sake of ten, I will not destroy it.' When the LORD had finished speaking with Abraham, he left, and Abraham returned home." (Genesis 18:22, 30-33 NIV)

"But I [Job] desire to speak to the Almighty and to argue my case with God." (Job 13:3)

Do you have this kind of relationship with God that you can communicate with the LORD as Abraham and Job did?
