Passionately praying

I'm going to say something for the first time slightly controversial, but I hope you who read these see the underlying theme of my heart. "I almost hope we that are comfortable in our lives right now don't have a good start to our day". What?! Yes, I (ALMOST) hope we don't have a good start. Now I would never actually say that or truly hope that for anyone, yet I do honestly desire that we are ...driven to our knees to desperately seek God, dwell at His feet humbly admitting that we need Him, not just His favor, not just help, but Him! I say this of myself, and if doesn't apply to you than of course disregard and go on faithfully strong in The Lord. Is this a form or way of reverse psychology? That I am not sure of, but I know in my heart, that when I have become to relaxed in my need for Him and Him alone, I am on a slippery slope headed for depression, despair., and self destruction. But glory to God He is lovingly patient and merciful, gracious in all His ways towards me, waiting and wanting to hear from my very heart my love and desire to be with Him, to belong to Him in the safety and comfort of His arms. Normally I would have just posted "we need to pray" and that is true and right, but I felt compelled to approach life differently this morning, I prayed with all my heart... let us pray passionately to Him, with Him, for ourselves and others. Blessings.
