“GOD IS SPEAKING in the depths of your being. Be still, so that you can hear GOD’S voice. GOD speaks in the language of Love; HIS words fill you with Life and Peace, Joy and hope. GOD desires to talk with all of HIS children, but many are too busy to listen. Their “work ethic” has them tied up in knots. They submit wholeheartedly to this taskmaster, wondering why they feel so distant from GOD. Living close to GOD requires making The LORD your First Love— your highest priority. As you seek GOD’S Presence above all else, you experience Peace and Joy in full measure. The LORD also is blessed when you make HIM first in your life. While you journey through life in GOD’S Presence, HIS Glory brightens the world around you.”
The Sovereign LORD has given me an instructed tongue, to know the word that sustains the weary. He wakens me morning by morning, wakens my ear to listen like one being taught. ISAIAH 50 : 4
Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken your first love. REVELATION 2 : 4
See, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the LORD rises upon you and his glory appears over you. ISAIAH 60 : 2
Prayer: Lord don’t let my work ethic get in the way of spending time with you and making space to love on others. Help me to first spend time with you so you can fill me with love, joy, peace and hope so I can be fully equipped to share it with others. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
