Christianity is all about relationship

Is Christianity a religion? a true and mature christian would never say it is, cause it is nothing matter with religion actually. Religion is all about the history, doctrine, ritual, service, and bla bla bla.....
Christianity is actually all about relationship! Whether you want to admit it or not, all about Christianity is relationship with God, relationship with others, and relationship with yourself. Relationship, is often involve only 2 parties, it is nothing matter with how others look, because only 2 of you know very well how close you are.
Establish an intimate relationship with God, is not just about reading bible and going to church, it is about involve Him in everything in your life. Reading bible can help us to know more about God, but it doesn't build the bonding; instead, think of Him, meditate on Him, pray to Him, ask Him, kidding with Him, questioning Him, these all action that you know He is there to listen to you all the time, it help you to build the bonding with Him. God is always with us, Emmanuel is His name. Because He is here, we should be able to feel His presence all the time, His companionship. The only reason why man cannot feel Him, is because there are too many "Me", instead of "HIM", take away "me" and you feel feel Him. Only when we are empty, then only He can fill us and we feel Him.
Love others as yourself, love one another. This love, is not about how we love, about how He love us first. The love of Christianity is about self-less, not selfish. Think not about ourselves, but others before us. Only when we are self-less, we are empty, then only we allow His love to flow through us, into others life, and that is how we learn to love each others. We love, because He first love us.
The last one, love yourself. Knowing our purpose on the earth is to glorify Him, and we live because of Him, we would not easily give up our life. He had paid a great price to ransom us from sin, and therefore our life is no longer ourselves, we live by Him and for Him.
Without this 3 relationship being establish, we have nothing about Christianity.
