Just a few thoughts...

If my relationship with God becomes a daily routine then I'll be able to think I'm doing alright as long as I'm able to check everything off my list. This includes praying and reading my Bible every morning and having a quiet time at night. I've gotten to where I feel guilty if I don't do the things on my list. I don't want to go to God out of guilt. I want to run to God out of a complete hunger and need for Him.

So I'm going to start shaking things up a little bit. I'm going to try to change the way I pray, change the way I read my Bible and try to change what I consider to be a quiet time.

If there's one thing I've learned about God this year, it's that He's a lot bigger than I could have ever dreamed and I haven't even hit the tip of His greatness. What I have isn't enough. I want more and I will be restless until I get more.
