Our Daily Bread

Lord, thank You for a great church service and message yesterday.  Lord, i LOVE when I feel emotionally connected to You.  It’s the most amazing feeling in the world, and makes me drop all of my other desires.  Lord, why is it so hard to emotionally connect with You?  I know that we’ll have eternity for that, but Lord, while i’m here on earth, i’m such a fickle being.  I’m always content to going back and playing with mud-pies after being shown the sea. I think just like every good vacation, they are not sustainable.  at least for me.  Lord, i want to have more moments of feeling You.  I somehow feel that that’s being immature, but it’s just true.  Lord, i pray that You will give me more of You.  When i feel You, I’m such a better person.  Lord, i pray that You will let me do something that makes me feel You more often. Thank You for CR, and what it meant to me, and how i connected with You.  Thank You for using it in my life to be close to You for so long.  Lord, i just want to say thank You so much for my job.  It is an amazingly fun and challenging job, and i love it.  But Lord, i miss You!  Lord, i also pray for my attitude and my relationships.  I’m struggling with being an ornery begrudging person, and I can’t seem to figure out this husband/dad/employee/idea-starter/social thing.  Lord, i know my balance is out of whack.  PLEASE help me to balance it.  Lord, help me to be a great husband and dad, and to model your love in my family’s life.  Lord, i pray that You’ll allow me to connect with You.  When that happens I’m such a better servant.  I love You.
Lamentations 3:25-26
New International Version (NIV)
25 The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him,
to the one who seeks him;
26 it is good to wait quietly
for the salvation of the LORD.
