Time with God
I was chatting with my friend Ruth today online, and we both were talking about how we want to be more committed to reading scripture and praying on a daily basis. Ruth mentioned that struggling to do this is evidence of spiritual warfare, and it is real! I have to agree..I have been convicted lately that I am not as diligent about this as I would hope, and that I often fail in making time for my God. In thinking about what Ruth said, I realized that I can easily become frustrated with myself because I am not spending enough quality time with God. But I know that God does not want me to feel ashamed or condemned. Instead, He wants me to spend some time with Him because He loves me! And I also know that He wants me to find my JOY in Him alone!!!
Right after our conversation, I came across this prayer in a book that I am reading:
Create in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a steadfast spirit within me... Restore to me the joy of your salvation, And sustain me with a willing spirit. Psalm 51: 10,12
God, I love you and YOU are my joy!! Thank you for my amazing husband too!
