Ask, and you shall receive.

Today, I felt God.
I asked him to touch me with his Spirit.
I felt that my heart was hardened.
I asked him to soften my heart and touch me.

And He did.

When I started this blog, I had this clever "line theory" that I used to describe how we live our lives. A while ago, I realized how stupid that "theory" is, if that's what you want to call it. I have been collecting a set of principles to help me live the best life I can, but all it's turning out to be is a list of rules to follow when dealing with other people.

I once met a man who in the story of my life plays the oracle. He is always there if you know where to look, and he only tells you what you need to hear to get where you need to go. He has a saying, which I have adopted as my new life motto:

I will never quit.
I will never give up.
And when I fall, I will fall forward
And pause on my knees to pray
Before I get back up again.

This saying doesn't have a cool name like the 'line theory,' but it is a step in the right direction. I am looking for the answer to a huge question in my life, and now I know exactly what I need to do to find it. It starts with God.

Today, I asked God to touch me, and He did. And there is a pool of tears on my bedroom floor to prove it.
