Coming to God

so lately God has been teaching me, and i think i can speak for Rachel too and say us, about coming to Him. it has been so great at different times for us to come to Him together, but most of the time that doesn't work out because of the distance between me and her. i cherish the thought of being able to do that on a more regular basis once we are together.
i have been going through a spiritual drought lately. and though i don't often remember it at the time, it is always a matter of drawing closer to the Father. why i most often wallow in it and wonder why i am trapped in this funk, i am not really sure. probably because i'm pretty much a dummy. haha.
but the thing that i have been realizing lately is that most of the time i'm not pressing into Him because i am dwelling in some kind of sin. so for whatever reason i've gone back to the Adam & Eve model of hiding my shame from the Lord. but what a lie from the devil. praise the Lord that in spite of my shame He wants me to come to Him. and He wants me to tell Him about it, just like He asked Adam & Eve, even though He already knows all about it.
how amazing that we have a God that is so merciful to stoop down to the wretched man that i am and love me and care for me. and whats more longs and desires for us to come to Him so we could enjoy that love and care. all so that His wonderful and merciful name would be glorified that much more.
pray for Rachel and i that, whatever state we may find ourselves in, we would continue to draw close to the One who satisfies all our needs.
much love.
