When I was reunited with God I had such a burning inside to chase after him. I went to every possible church event, watched sermons online, read the bible everyday with such hungry eyes. I couldn't stop talking about Him! Then slowly but surely it all became routine. I would read my bible with and urgency to finish the passage and get to the point, I'd miss days of bible study and zone out when I did go. I felt horrible, I asked myself if it was all just a Jesus-crazed phase. I went to a group prayer one Friday and I asked them to pray for me. I needed more than just my prayer to help me out of this rut. I was running around depressed,stressed about bills, and life and so many things that I forgot to stop and talk to got and to just connect with Him. I allowed Him to be an afterthought at the end of my day instead of the first thing I woke up with, I made a choice that wasn't how I wanted to live.
I prayed this prayer: Connect with me here, as I seek You in your word. Begin with focus and openness to see what You have in store for me.
Psalms 40:1-3
I waited patiently for the Lord; And He inclined to me, and heard my cry. He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, out of miry clay and set my feet upon a rock, and established my steps, He has put a new song in my mouth- Praise to our God; Many will see it and fear, and will trust in the Lord.
Pray and wait silently to hear God speak to you. God responds to us we just have to call out.
