"Be still, and know that I am God; - (Psalms 46:10a (NIV))
As I sit here exhausted, I realize just how easy it is to
become so engrossed in the things of the world that we call our lives.
It is so easy to let God slip to a second, third or even a fourth
priority. The sad part about this when it happens is that we don’t
realize that it is happening until it has already happened.
We need to establish something that becomes a constant in
our lives. Something that we do on a daily basis that forces us to be
still in the presence of God. This must be something that we do no
matter whether we want to or not, no matter whether we feel that we can
take a day off because no one will notice.
God’s Word is alive!
God shares His heart through His Word.
The trick is to be open and to not take things out of
context. You must dive deep and explore the mysteries that God has in
store for you. The Bible is called the Living Word for a reason. No
matter where you are in your walk with God, there is something for you
to learn. What I find so intriguing is that you can learn something from
one passage and as you mature, you can learn something different from
the same passage. This knowledge does not replace what you have learned
before. It expands, it builds upon the previous knowledge to give you a
deeper understanding.
