My quest

I've been missing something lately. And I feel it so strong.
A while ago, I was meeting with a good friend, teacher, and therapist. She said, concerning 'motherly love' that sometimes people long for this and wish for it and want it in their lives, "God is the only other person that can actually give this type of love".
I've been feeling this empty hole in my life lately. It seems like ever since I went through surgery and lost the strength of both knees, I haven't prayed, and therefore, haven't studied the scriptures. The first thing I read today was in Enos. The phrase, "And my soul hungered", (v. 4) caught my attention. It's exactly what I feel. It's not a physical hunger, but a deep hunger of the soul. A hunger that can only be cured by GOD. And I know that.
And so, this is my quest...for November and December of this month..and to record my experiences in this blog daily. To work on this hunger...and to have this hunger filled by God...for He is the only one that can give me that motherly type of love that is so filling and so good.
