Hi, God. It's me again

Hi, God.

It's me.  I know it's been a while since we talked like this.  I know it's been a while since I've REALLY set aside the time to hang out with You.  I'm sorry.  I know You know all my excuses and other reasons... too busy, got a lot going on, etc.  But I ask for Your forgiveness.  I want to be close to You like we were before.  I want to come back to You, Jesus.  I know it wasn't You who moved from me but me who's drifted from You.  I hear Your voice, Lord.  I feel You tugging at my heart, whispering, "I'm here".  Well, God, I'm back.  I know that I'm not back under my own strength.  But it is You who gave me the strength to come back.  And it is You who kept me from drifting too far.  I love You, Jesus.  Help me find that passion for You once again.  Help me rekindle that fire.  I long for Your embrace, Lord.  Show me Your glory.  Teach me how to prioritize my life.  Teach me to bear fruit.  Purge this branch, my God.  Cut away those things in my life that don't belong.  Cut away anything in me that isn't like You.  I love You, Jesus!
Thanks.

Love,
Me
