Came across this quote this morning from Andrew Wommack's book, "A Better Way to Pray" (thanks to Jacki Shuttleworth for recommending the book!).
"Don't try to build your relationship with God too intensely, either. Some people think they need a lightning bolt from heaven in order to curl their hair in the morning! If you asked God for that today, what would you need to "feel" His love tomorrow? If God didn't perform something bigger and better, you'd wonder, "What happened, Lord?" Yesterday You zapped me but today I don't feel a thing! Why don't You love me anymore?" He'd have to jump through a new hoop each day just to keep you satisfied. This is the worst thing that could happen to you. Instead of maturing in intimacy with Him, you'd become addicted to spectacular experiences. God's not going to do that!" (Andrew Womack, A Better Way to Pray, 43).
