Who Moved?

I heard a quote one time that said, "If you are feeling distant from God, who moved?" Yesterday during worship I was praying because I have felt distant from God and feeling disconnected; that is when this quote dropped into my spirit. I began to rewind in my mind the last several weeks and saw that I had moved away from depending on Him.

I have discovered the busier I get the less quality time I spend with God because I am to busy to pray, read my bible, do personal worship. When I do this I become dependent on myself to create fruit. I have blogged before about the vine and branch. The branch has no ability to bear fruit unless it is connected to the vine. In my busyness I stop doing the very thing that will allow me to produce fruit in my life. I have come to the conclusion that I am to busy not to spend time with God. As Derek Levendusky says, "He is my everything, I am my nothing." This is so true, I need Him not just a token song on a Sunday morning during worship or a quick read of the Bible to fit it in but I need a real authentic growing relationship with Him to walk out my everyday.
