UGH. How many times have I sat/knelt/stood before God one night just out of habit; because I thought it was just the thing a Christian ought to do-- pray every day? How many times have I interceded just to avoid feeling guilty of negligence and callousness? How can I complain of dry eyes and an untouched spirit if prayer is, to me, just a chore, and not the time spent seeking after a God who holds the keys and mysteries of the world in His hands? If I were to kneel before God every morning and night and TRULY desire and hunger and thirst and breathe after His Holy Spirit, is there even the slightest chance that He would leave me dry for long? Oh, but that I would believe that God is a God who hears every word, knows every thought, and yearns to give the answers, deliver the bound, and save the lost! --headkeyboard-- God help me!

you will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart.
-- Jeremiah 29:13
