Mom Heart Moments #145

Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me.

SOME DAYS I FIND MYSELF snapping at my children or feeling upset with someone over petty things. Later on in the day, I may realize that I haven’t had my daily meeting with God. Without the investment of time with Jesus, of course, it is impossible to be spiritual!

Here are a few practical suggestions for meeting with God:

1. Find a time (or times) you can set aside to meet with God. Even five minutes is better than nothing! Do try to have a more leisurely time at least once a week. There is no specific time more holy than others —you can learn just as much at midnight as you can at early dawn. Whenever best suits you and your situation is the right time.
2. Read through the psalms, one each day. Circle or write down any truth it teaches you about God.
3. Do the same with the book of Hebrews. Look at Hebrews to learn the lessons of what pleases God, the attributes of Jesus, and His will for us to hold fast.
4. Read a chapter of Proverbs each day, and keep a list of what this book teaches you about folly versus wisdom.

Allow me to pray for you as you seek to regularly meet with God.

Lord, I pray that You will raise up women who will love You, seek You, trust You, and serve You with their whole hearts. Speak to them in their needs and issues of life, and help them to learn from You. Comfort them and guide them in wisdom. Bless these precious ones, I pray, and thank You so much for Your generous, unfailing love. We love and worship You. In Jesus’ precious and wonderful name we come. Amen.

Which of the steps above can you take today to meet with God?
