Getting back to God
ByIn some ways I never left God but, I’m ashamed to admit, in some ways I have. While my heart has always been for God and He has always been the most important person in my life, I haven’t always treated Him as such. God has been speaking to me through many different things recently and I’ve come to realize that I need to get myself back on track. I need to be spending more time in His word, I need to be spending more time in prayer, and I need to be doing more outside of myself to further His kingdom. My first step that I’m going to take is to try to faithfully have my quiet time each morning before our day officially begins. I’m not a morning person though so pray that I can do this!! 
Good for you to be so candid, and that’s a good plan to get back on trck. Blessings to you.
Thanks, Neil!
I can really relate. I have completely shut out my prayer time, Bible study, everything. I can feel the difference in myself. Just yesterday my pastor spoke about it in church and had a wonderful analogy.
He said it’s like we put wood in a pile, grab a stick with a marshmallow on it, and just sit there waiting on the fire to start. We need to start the fire!! Just sitting in my life wondering when God is going to move is the same kind of silliness. I need to spark His flame in my life.
Amen, Missy! That’s a cool (or should I say hot?
) analogy! The sermon we heard this weekend was one of the things that’s helping me realize I’m not where I need to be too. Funny how they do that, huh!
