Bored with God?

This morning as I was riding in to work on the metro I took the opportunity to read a little from The Message on my iPhone (yes, how very modern of me - commuting to work on public transport and using an Apple product - soon the new Microsoft because they are everywhere - to read this modern translation of an ancient text).  I indeed had a few interesting thoughts from my readings, but my mind wandered a little to the big picture of my spiritual life and I asked myself if I was bored with God?

A scary question to be sure - because just the question let alone the answer is a bit insulting both to God and to me.  But I think one that bears asking.  Yes, God should be insulted by the thought that He could bore anyone (the question of whether God would be insulted or can be insulted is another topic).  Here is the most awe inspiring Person, the Creator of all things, a Being so powerful the very presence of Him could destroy all other things.  And yet I find myself asking - does God bore me?

Its insulting to God that I ask this question and its insulting to me.  Its insulting to me because it implies that I don't really understand the reality of having a relationship with God and the true joy and truth that that relationship should bring.  And yet I claim to be a Christian where a relationship to God is the core of my life.

Despite all this, I still find myself asking this question.  And this morning as I sped along under the streets of the traffic jams above me, contemplating how I emotionally respond to He who holds all things in His hands; I had to answer; Yes I was bored.

The truth of that is not at all flattering - because it reveals the truth of my relationship, or more accurately my lack of connectedness  with God.  In my mind, I know I should never be bored with God, how could I.  And yet my emotional response is one of boredom.  Therefore the only conclusion I can reach is that my disconnect is so immense that I am missing out on the most rewarding of human experiences.

I wonder how I shall respond to this revelation????
