TIME WITH HIM

“Seek the LORD that you may live.” AMOS 5:6

Do you desire a release from the stress you’re experiencing? Do you wish something could quiet your fears or give you a fresh perspective on your struggles? If so, meditating on the Word of God can revolutionize your life.

The Father wants you to relate to Him—to be quiet before Him so He can speak to you and teach you His ways. Unfortunately, you will miss His activity, direction, and intervention in your circumstances if you don’t take the opportunity to listen to Him and know Him through His Word.

Of course life is busy, and you may think you don’t really have time to sit in His presence. But realize that when you forfeit your relationship with God, you lose much more than just time. You miss His joy, peace, power, love, and wisdom— and even the very purposes for which you were created.

Friend, the Father loves you intimately—with a depth that can never be measured. So spend time with Him and give Him the opportunity to have you all to Himself. You’ll surely find all that you’ve been longing for.

Father, help me know You. Teach me Your ways so I may love You more and obey You faithfully, amen.

In His presence . . . learn from Him.
