Prayer Request


Lord,
Hey.Well right now I'm feeling really spiritually dry. I don't want to talk to you, I don't want to read the bible, I don't want to write in my journal, I don't want to go to church tonight (which I will)...but it's like all these things I DREAD doing sometimes Lord and I know I havnt been fighting through the feelings. Which in turn makes me feel, worse. I have to remember that you see me like a father sees his daughter; she may make mistakes every once in a while, but that doesn't mean he doesn't love her any less. He thinks the exact same way about her. It also says that everyone falls short from the glory of God. Everyone slips up on a weekly basis weather it be by getting angry, walking in pride, or telling a lie. The mistake I have been making this week is not giving you all of me. It seems like I get refreshed one minute, then covered in guilt or condemnation the next. It just seems like it's one minute after another; one week after another; one DAY after another. I am never consistent in my communication with you and I feel like you are disappointed in me every time I fall short in that way. For example, What the heck was up with me after sunday night from Citidel? It's like I felt free and right standing and refreshed that whole Sunday, but then I woke up on Monday and just felt distant again and chose not to do anything about it. I guess I just feel like I'm one of those people who never learn from their disciplines and therefore wastes time and never grows or gets closer to you. I pray lord that that will not be me; I won't be that person who let's the enemy defeat them over and over again. Let me not be that person who takes 5 steps forward then 5 steps back. I had such a great fast with you and I don't want that closeness to go away. Please help me to fight. Give me the strength to go into this church service tonight and bring all of me to you. Please! I need more of the closeness of you.
In your name, amen

My friend, I have one question for you, do you have a time set aside. To read Gods word and pray every day?. If not this may be yr problem. I think you answered yr own question. It's all about consistancy. That means going to church even when you don't feel like it.
