Reminders.

I was so down today and i knew it was because i haven't been spending much time with God lately. It always becomes painfully obvious to me very quickly when time with Him is short or not much at all. Why do i forget so quickly how much He must be a part of my every day? When will i remember that i fade so fast outside His presence? It seems like i should have this always on my mind, so why is it so easy to forget or ignore? I want to be so absorbed in Him that to separate Him from me would be excruciatingly painful and would be like separating skin from bone. I want to be wrapped up in Him, immersed in Him, consumed by Him constantly. The only good from this painful realization is the sweet Grace that always follows.
