Does your heart ever yearn to be close to God?

GOD is with me all the time. I always feel HIS presence and HE has given me the courage to write about things I dared not do. I write against morality and am not as scared of others as I have been. I am writing a novel, and even though an adventurous heroic character would be a Christian, my protagonist is. Before I became a Christian, he would have been a devilmaycare, but GOD must have cleansed my mind. Whenever I go for a walk, I will be counting how many paces to run, how many paces to walk or just making up a story in my head, and then suddenly I am thinking of GOD and how beautiful it will be in Eternity.

I don't think there is a day that goes by that I do not think about my relationship to God. Yes. I want a close relationship, and I sometimes wonder why my walk is not as close as it should be. A friend said the other day that her relationship with the Lord is dearer every day . I was thinking , I am not sure I can say that. I guess I shouldn't rely so much on my feelings. I do know I cry out to Him. I need to feel His presence, and I need Him to give me strength to get through each day . I am so glad His mercies are new every morning .

Hmmmmm,, well all I can say is that before I gave my life to Jesus and became a born again Christian, I was always searching for something and always going to church and sometimes finding myself in the church in the middle of the week not knowing why. Then feb of 1991 I gave my life to the Lord and was on cloud 9 for a long time and the yearning had vanished, until about 5yrs ago I had a very srong yearning to want to know more and understand God better and His destiny that He has for me and all that His word said! I have received miracle upon miracle, even when I had faith of a mustard seed, and found that God disguises His greatest gifts in the most flawed vessels so only the passionate qualify to release them,, and found this to be true over and over again and will never forget the Price God was willing to pay reveals the worth of the product He saw.....ME!!!
