By choosing to draw near to You, You draw near to us…

…Meditate within your heart on your bed, and be still…
Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.

Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands …and purify your hearts…

Psalm 4:4-5, James 4:8


Father, as wonderful as a good night’s sleep is, it is equally wonderful to know that when we awaken, too early, You are there, waiting for us to acknowledge Your presence in the affairs of our lives. We do have “agendas”. Sometimes they press in on us and seem to force You out. What a grave error it is Father when we proceed as if You were not present and as if You did not care.

Drawing near to You in all circumstances and at all times is Your desire for us. You have told us that Your thoughts toward us exceed number. What a wonderful reality. Help us, this day, to respond to that truth by acknowledging Your presence and asking for Your guidance. In Jesus Holy name, we pray, amen.

April 29, 2025 Let the person who has not sinned cast the first stone April 28, 2025 Of course I am saved. My Dad was a pastor! April 27, 2025 How would your day go if you "felt" the presence of Christ? April 26, 2025 It is never my fault. This time it was Eve! April 25, 2025 What I am doing just feels wrong.
