I want more

July 24, 2008 | Faith: Knowing Christ

Lately I’ve missed God. I do that from time. I know that it’s possible to go through life religious, or be active in a church, or even speak and write about God and that be considered a faith walk.

But I want more than that.

I can’t settle for that.

I want to talk to Him, to feel Him, to draw upon His strength, and experience my relationship with the Creator of the Universe.

Some call that emotionalism.

I disagree. I want that in every relationship that I care about – not a distant faraway I-feel-nothing-but-we-are-still-together kind of love.

So today I am honest with you, God. I miss you. I know you haven’t gone anywhere, but I turn and actively seek you for you are never far away. I thank you that I am yours, and that you are mine. I will pick up your Word. I will shut down the hype that pulls at my life–even if it seems like it’s all about you–and I will listen. For You. To You. With You.

    I am there, too Suzie. I miss Him when I don’t sense Him, although I know He’s there. But the past two days I keep running into the same scriptures over and over, so I think He’s ready to talk! Time to dig in!

    I love your post today. I have been struggling a little too. I have been quoting “Draw closer to God and he will draw closer to you” to myself a lot. And trying to read the bible more and pray more. I blogged about this topic a few weeks back, and jokingly said I go from high speed prayer connection to dial up. And that I’m like the verizon guy, calling out to God “Can you hear me now?”

    I think we all have peaks and valleys. We just need to remember that God stays the same.

    Hey Beth and Kelly,

    I know that God is there. That’s why I miss Him. : ) I just needed to carve out a little Suzie and God time. Isn’t it awesome that we can do that — turn to Him and get alone and find that peace. I love that about being His girl.
