Getting closer to God

What does "getting closer to God mean?" That's really an open question!

For me it means growing in my relationship. Learning more about God - trying to understand the character of God better.

The past two days I spent some time with some friends at Oak Mountain State Park in Alabama - enjoying nature. Nature is definately one of the ways I grow closer to God. Seeing nature is a reminder to me - that God is the Creator of all this beauty! It's amazing. I've included some of my pictutres of nature.

How do you grow closer to God?
