I was raised in the Church and definately understand and love God and his awesome power. With that said, I have yet to find a church in the city I am in now. I have tried a coule over the years and get turned off for some reason or another and it takes a while for me to try another. I RARELY read my Bible at home and I want to start now. I mainly pray my way and proclaim that God will work things out even when I feel things won't get better and listen to my Gospel music. What has stopped me in the past and now is that I don't know where to start or what to read. I do't just want to flip it open. I want to have a "purpose" or "direction" when reading. My other issue is prayer. I have trouble because I don't want to seem like I'm just asking for stuff (I'm in a valley right now) or just saying thanks. How do you have a conversation with God and how do you hear him? How do you just let your issues and burdens go and turn them over to God? I know this is a lot and I feel bad for not knowing this stuff, but I have always tried, it just doesn't click for me. Thanks ladies!
