God’s Refreshing While We Wait
Day 26 “I will refresh the weary and satisfy the faint.” – Jeremiah 31:25 Additional Reading: Isaiah 40:28-31 I don’t know about you, but to me “Back to school” means back to busy.
Focus – a center of activity, attraction, or attention
Action – the accomplishment of a thing usually over a period of time.
Inseparability – seemingly always together: very intimate.
Trust – assured reliance on the character, ability, strength, or truth of someone or something.
Hunger – a strong desire.
I can name a handful of friendships throughout my life where we were described as inseparable. I think that’s because in order to have that deep of a friendship, it takes some work on both ends. Both people have to be willing to spend the time getting to know one another. Moreover, they need to actually enjoy each other’s company. I can think of a couple of situations where I was forced to spend time with someone I didn’t really care for. I can honestly say I never went out of my way to get to know them more than I had to. But, if it was someone who I enjoyed being around, I made sure I was available. The same goes for our walk with God. Would your relationship with God be considered close? Are you and God inseparable? Or do you often let things wiggle their way into God’s rightful place in your life? God has already done His part. He is willing and loves to spend time with you, so much so that He knows you inch to inch. He knows what you will say before you say it. He knows your future and erases your past, all to be with you. If you are struggling with having faith in God, it may be time to check out your relationship with Him.
What are some things that get in the way of your prayer/devotion time? How can you remove those things to leave time for God?
Find peace in His embrace,
