I just came from the church. We heard the morning mass and went to McDonalds for breakfast after. I'm not really a church-goer, I just go to church whenever I feel like it. But I can say I have a healthy relationship with God. I pray before going to bed and I talk to Him whenever and wherever I think there is a need for it. Religion-aside, I feel calm when I get to pray and share my sentiments to the world with God. I know He's just there listening to my every wish. He may not give what I want all the time,but I have this strong conviction that He'll always give us better things...better than what we could ever imagine.

I go to church whenever I feel like it. I don't go and attend service because I feel obliged to do so. My relationship with God has been wonderful. I know He is there for me and He knows I love him. I believe God is there and He watches out for me...I pray and talk to Him in times that I feel I needed to. We have a healthy balanced relationship and it's certainly just between us. I don't have to show it to anyone, nor do I have to prove it. God and I know, we are good.

I'm a regular church-goer. I go there to worship, to fellowship, and to serve. Our church is like a real family, so fellowship is great. I have a personal relationship with God. This doesn't have anything to do with religion. I belong to a denomination because we share the same belief and follow the same doctrines.

Honestly, because of my cravings for an additional income, I'm beginning to loosen up my relationships with God. I seldom hear church mass nowadays, because I am always busy sleeping because of my online job related activities.
Sundays is the only day that I get to sleep the whole day because I don't have job, it is also the only day of the entire week that I have the chance of washing my clothes in order for me to have something to wear for the entire week.
But despite of these, I still continue to maintain my close relationships with God. I do pray a lot during and after I wake up. I also read my Didache, it's an inspirational booklet for me reflect on for the entire day.
And besides, going to the church is not a basis on how you are closely connected with God, it is within ourselves....

i regularly attend our church worship services...it is important to me because i believe that attendance at worship services is my obligation to the Lord...and that when i am in such worship services, i feel the Spirit of the Lord that strengthens my faith and my relationship to Him...and through this services i was able to receive His messages, His words...which i believe the food for my soul...
i am glad for you that you have a good relation to God...have a nice day and more blessings to come!

I believe in God, always have and probably always will but I do not attend church and probably never will. That does not mean that my faith is any less weaker than those who do attend, its just that I choose to believe from my own house and in my own way.
I don't have anything against the ones that attend church but I also don't like how the ones that do attend church push the lord and attending church on you so heavily. I feel a person should be able to worship in their own way.
