i have a desperate need for God in my life. yes, i pray every morning and every night, but I don’t feel his presence in my life like i used to. It makes me sad and worries me at the same time. I need to make a concious effort to be closer to God. Although I know God is always present in my life, i know I will not be as close to him as I would like to be, until I make the effort. Church is the first step. I went to church this past sunday, after several months of not having been. It is so wrong of me to only attend church when I need prayers answered. I’m going to make an effort to change that. Ash wednesday is tommorow. Mass is at 7pm. I’m still not sure what exactly i will be giving up for lent. We’ll see.
