When was the last time...


As I sat down today to spend time with God for the first time in a week and half, I was struck by my position before God.  I was struck by my heart.  I started journaling and what you see below is a portion of what resulted.  God convicted my heart by Galatians 5:22-23.  I am beginning to focus on allowing the Spirit to make these things evident in my life.

When was the last time I came to You?
When was the last time I spoke to You?
When was the last time I listened to You?
When was the last time I simply came to be held in Your arms?
When was the last time I knelt in repentance for my adultery and idolatry?
When was the last time I found You more precious than me?
When was the last time I saw Your true Glory and my true depravity?
When was the last time I loved like You?
When was the last time I was as patient as You?
When was the last time I stopped to consider how my actions affected You?
Oh God, when was the last time I truly sought after you with a heart unadultered to this world? When was the last time I TRULY cared about what matters to You? 
When was the last time I sought to please Your heart and thrill Your whole being?
When was the last time I gave thought to what You gave in order to obtain my soul?
