Spending Time with God

Spending quality time with God is vital in our christian walk.
It's not optional, it's necessary.

As a young adult, we see our lives fill up with activities. Wake up, rush to work or school, hit the gym, finish homework, do chores, and so on. Yes, we are busy people but we are also people depending and yearning for something more. Being still and personally seeking God fills our agendas better than any accomplished task. Without doing this, we find ourselves in an endless rat race wondering why although we are busy and active, we still feel lonely and genuinely unfulfilled.

But how do we make time to be with him? For some of us, this requires us to literally wake up earlier and spend quiet time with Him. For others, we set times or simply like to pause in between our daily activities to pray and meditate on God and his word. We read throughout the history of Jesus time on earth that he constantly and deliberately walked away to be alone with God. He made the time and knew how to leave things behind to spend necessary time with his Father.

I like to spend time watching the sunrise or sunset. I like to watch the work of art in the sky that God specifically designed for that specific moment for me to see and spend time contemplating the beauty of his work. How do you like to spend time with God? What are things you like to see him do daily? Don't be afraid to make time to be with him and to be in awe of the great God who longs to be with you.
