As time goes along the conversation becomes familiar. If I spend time reading my Bible, meditating, talking (praying) to God and listening, I am strengthened. My hunger and thirst intensifies. I barely can wait for more.

My regret is that “stuff” bumps onto my pathway. I get stuck. I’m tired of flip-flopping! I want to be steady.

Fred, the message you recently brought forth regarding Jesus desiring our companionship fits right into my struggle. Because I lack commitment I lose precious moments to be close to Him and God misses sharing time with me.

May I, and others in such dilemma, find comfort in Scripture that teaches if we desire the Lord with all our hearts and search for Him as hidden treasure we will find the Saviour. Once found may we remain true to our treasure.
