Something I've noticed about my dog lately. She loves to be in my presence. Whether I'm petting her or ignoring her it doesn't matter. If I put her on her leash when she wants out she will sit at the door and whine. If she's on the leash and I'm working in the garden, she whines. If she is indoors and I am outside doing yard work, she whines. But when we are together she is in bliss.
In the same way I love being and yearn to be in my Heavenly Fathers presence. What really befuddles me is I don't run to Him like I should. I have this yearning to be with Him but I spend more of my spare time messing around on the computer. I find myself going through emails and blogging, then rummaging through ebay which we all now can lead to hours of nothingness. Why do I fight it so much? I don't understand why I don't seek the Lord as often as I know I should. I hate to say it but I should be more like my dog. Not so much the butt sniffing and whining as the pressing in and seeking that intimate closeness. Even to just be still and know He is here is enough.
