Time alone with God

Published on 18 January 2025 at 09:16

LORD, I crave these times alone with YOU . . . to pray, to read YOUR WORD, to think.

Sometimes I can spend hours here. 

Sometimes a few minutes. 

Mostly depending on the chaos calls of life. 

 

I know that many others would consider this being lazy, or getting nothing accomplished.

And to be honest, I argue with myself a LOT about this very mind-set.

 

BUT GOD . . . I have found also, that I need this time.

I need it more and more.

Realizing how much of life and living that I have no control over, and how much of people I have no control over – GOD, I need YOU . . .

To let go of all that I cannot do, all I cannot change.

 

Realizing how alone I am – GOD, I need YOU . . .

There is more to be done than to just sit here – and YOU know that, too.

But that’s when walking with YOU, talking with YOU, comes into play.

 

SAVIOR of my soul – BE the LORD of my life, today.

BE with me.

Walk with me.

Talk with me.

Please, Help me keep focused on YOU – regardless of the chaos that surrounds me.

 

I need YOUR Peace.

YOU are not startled, nor shocked.

YOU are not surprised, nor caught off guard – ever.

YOU have a perfect peace within YOU, about YOU . . . and since I am YOURS . . . and YOU are my GOD . . . why should I not know YOUR Peace 😉

 

Thank YOU GOD . . .

 

: John 14:27 – Peace I leave with you; My Peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.

  • LORD, teach me how to not let 😉

 

: Isaiah 30:15 – For thus said the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, “In returning and rest you shall be saved; in quietness and in trust shall be your strength.” But you were unwilling

  • LORD, please help me to be willing. To return and rest. To be quiet and trust.

 

: II Corinthians 10:4 – We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ

  • LORD, teach me HOW . . . please.
