Spending Time With God
This is has been one of my challenges...
Making and Taking the time to build the most important relationship you and I will ever have. Our walk with Jesus Christ.
Why is this so hard sometimes? Everything around me that seemed so important at the time zaps up any time I was meaning to set aside to spend time with God. Work, family, friends, sleep, these things and many more crowd the day and slowly begin pushing time with God out of the picture
However, when you think about it, Spending time with God or lack of spending time with God effects every aspect of our lives. Our relationships, our work, our families. Our entire moral, physical and spiritual outlook on life changes depending on where our relationship with God stands.
This relationship is the most important relationship we will ever have. It is the relationship we will base all other relationships around....the relationship we will base our lives around! It is this relationship that God uses to impact the world around us!
SO...
STOP asking yourself when the last time you really spent time with just God, nothing else, no phone, computer, friends, or church...just you and God. Stop asking and GO DO IT. Taking the extra time each day to hear from Jesus.
STOP asking yourself when the last time you got real with God or let God get real with you was, and GO, spend that time with God. Get real with Him, let him get real with you. Pour out your heart to Him. Let him pour out his love on you! Let him show you His way, His heart, His desires!
These are the things I know I have to do....but everything else always seems more pressing.
Then I ask myself....
How can you help others grow closer to God, if you aren't growing closer to Him in your own walk with God?
How can you impact the world around you for Jesus, if your life is not being impacted by him everyday?
Our time -My time- with God is the most important thing in this life. Taking the time to hear from Him each day will mold and shape your days into a strong and consistent walk with Jesus Christ!!
