4 Steps:1 - Don't feel like reading or praying? Do it anyway.2 - Pray and be honest with God about how you're feeling, while also telling Him what your heart desires for your relationship.3 - Switch up your normal routine.4 - Dig deeper.

I love your heart, scripture reference, and prayer at the end. Keep chasing everything God has for you! I'm in the same boat trying to figure out what that looks like for me!
