Communication

Have you ever had a genuine relationship with someone you never met,
or one that grew without communication? Personally, I have not.

I believe this is true: The quality of our communication with the
Lord is an indicator of the quality of our relationship with Him.
  

 But you, dear friends, build yourselves up in your most holy faith
  and pray in the Holy Spirit. Keep yourselves in God's love as you
  wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal
  life. (Jude 1:20-21 NIV)
