spend more time with God

I’m really happy to read everyone’s comment. It’s really encouraging. I say so because I don’t get to interact much with people my age about the topic, only in church. So it’s really neat to come on here to read about this. I wanted to say thank you all. Please keep in touch with me at Kimpex20@yahoo.com or kimpex_18@hotmail.com…I too try to read my devotional everyday and I also send out the scriptures that I read in the devotional to all the contacts (mobile)on my cell phone. I was also surprised about the people that received Christ’s words. God Bless you all and thank you again! :-)

Often I’m not really sure what to do to spend time with God but I know it’s the most important thing to do, and not knowing how probably shows just how far I’ve wandered. It’s one of my resolutions for 2009 to figure this out and get to know God well again.

For the last two months I have become active in a womens bible study. It is a great way to spend my time. I have a renewed relationship with God and the women in my community :)

worshipping, praying, fasting, soaking, thanking, loving.

Lately i’ve been thinking about how scary hell is… and how scary i think letting go of some stuff is…
and this has been a goal for me for many, many years… i’ve never done it though…

I want to wake up EVERY morning and dedicate that time to God, with no hesitations. without asking for anything just praising him and thanking him for everything in my life, including sending his son Jesus to rescue us from doom.

Read the Bible, pray and journal.
Spending time with God keeps my life in proper alignment. When I try to do things in out of my own strength I fail. (Good to remember when considering any of my other goals). But when I draw from the source of strength, I’m more likely to succeed and find deeper satisfaction in life.

I did this before, but now I’ve fallen off the wagon. O_O time to get back on it. God is my heavenly Father, and He is my best friend. Time to start acting like it again.

Importance:
- Enables me to self-reflect my relationship with Him
- Provides me wisdom
- Gives me peace, especially from the world
- Helps me to learn more about love

I think that it is key to spend time with God every day. I mean really, when you think about it He rules and everything is under His control so why not give Him some time. He kind of like a famous super hero or someone that is popular(all depending on your prefrence). Giving time to God Helps me to be ready and have the full armor of God everyday. And I hope that I can be in God’s Word everyday.
