If you've ever said to yourself, “I don't even have time to think", then you know how hard it is to concentrate when you're being bombarded from all sides. It's even harder to focus on God and His Word when we can't take time to renew our minds and refresh our spirits through quiet reflection.
God doesn't often shout to get our attention. Instead, the Bible says that He speaks in "a still small voice" (1Kings 19:12) which means we need to be listening! So, what can you do to put yourself in a position to hear God's voice? It requires making time in your daily routine to become still and quiet in God's presence. Find a room in your house, outside under the trees, or some other place where you can shut out the distractions of the world for a few precious minutes each day.
God, I want to find those quiet waters of peace where I can get alone with You every day and meditate on You. Thank You for wanting to speak to my heart and show me Your will in Jesus Name!
