Unintentional Experiment
I need to get back into the Word (the Bible). I was doing daily devotions and that was really helping me connect with God in a unique way each day. However, there have been gaps in my reading lately. I’ve only done one devotion (Sunday night) over the last week and a half.
I wondered what changes in my daily life would result from doing this. So far, I’ve been really struggling way too much with lust. I’ve been frustrated more easily with people. I’ve felt stressed just doing simple things that were easy to do over a week and a half ago (checking social networking sites – blog, Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook, etc.). I’ve been cursing up a storm so much that even I’m offended at my speech. I’ve stopped hearing from God as clearly as I had been.
So, this turned out to be an experiment of sorts, but unintentionally. I can attest to the fact that 7 days without prayer definitely makes one weak. Well, I’ve been praying, but I need the Bible to renew me daily. I hate when these lulls come. I miss out on so much of a Spiritually connected life. It’s not good. Here I come (back again), Jesus.
