Quiet Reflections

D

o you set aside time, be it early in the mornings or evening time to spend some quiet time in His Word?

In a busy world, where everything seems to speed up and just taking time seems to be impossible, as a Christian, one of the things, we can’t neglect is taking that time to spend in His Word.

There are many ways to do so, but it’s important that before we do anything else that the first things we do, is not put aside God and say we are too busy, but to make that time, even if it means writing down on a sticky note or setting an alarm, and just make that time with God.

Notice how when you make an appointment, you take the time out of your day to attend to it?

Maybe that is something we need to do is just set aside that time for Him. Only Him.

If you find yourself an early bird, or more likely to get things done in the morning, do so, but if you find yourself to be a night owl, that is the time, to just put aside whatever is being done and set it aside just for Him.

Be it a dayplanner, google calendar, whatever is the case, reserve time for God and use it for Him.

Turn off the radio, the t.v., the phone and just let it be time between you and our Father in Heaven.

Notice how if it was anything else in our lives, we set it aside, but what is it that keeps us from sitting down, I mean really, sitting down with Him and just using time with Him?

Over the next few weeks in my, “Quiet Reflections” I will explore tools to make the most of our quiet time with our Father in Heaven, but in the meantime, I would like to hear from you, “What do you think keeps you from having a quiet time with our Father in Heaven?”

  1. So true, Twinkle Mom. I go out to my back porch early every morning before anyone awakes, sit on a lounge chair and read the Bible or a religious book. The birds of the Lord are the only ones keeping me company as they sing cheerfully. The day just isn’t right when I have not made time for God.
