Intentional Intimacy

It is so easy to let life get in the way of our pursuit of intimacy with God. I have found myself often thinking, not now. I cant pray or read the bible now. I have to do laundry, or mop the floors etc..  Communication and intentionally spending time with God shouldn't be a chore. We get to spend time with God!! The creator of the universe seeks after us! The one who has created all good things in this world wants our attention!!! That makes me feel so loved and humble.
 I want this relationship to grow. Like any relationship though, it takes work for both parties involved. Jesus had already done his part. He has already laid down the foundation for this life changing relationship. He is constantly seeking after my attention and affection.
 As I continue to spend intentional time with  the Lord, I see my life change, my spirit renewed. It is a blessing to be in his presence. Its an honor of which only by Christ's doing am I even worthy. Its a real relationship that is above all others. My relationship with my God is a building block for the rest of my relationships in life.
