longing & thirsting

Psalm 42:1 As the deer longs for streams of water,
  so I long for you, O God.
2 I thirst for God, the living God.
  When can I go and stand before him?

a question dropped in my head when I read this psalm this morning...

do I long for God?

am I thirsty for Him?

I wonder...

or do I long for people's approval?

do I thirst for their love more than I thirst for an intimate - I mean, REALLY intimate hookup - with God?

do I spend so much time questing to be & do what He wants me to be & do that I may be missing the most important part of the whole God thing...

a personal, one on one connection with the God of the universes.

I'm gonna think about it
