Summer 2023....think of what our time with God does for Him!

Got a minute?

Surely you have granted him unending blessings and made him glad with the joy of your presence. (Psalm 21:6)

“Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.” (John 7:37-38)

I believe most of realize that our time with God brings us peace and calmness while living in an unstable world. However, do we ever think of what our time with God does for Him?

As parents of young adults, we simply cherish the times our kids spend time with us . . . nothing special, just time to chat, spend time in a backyard b-b-q, or sitting on the porch sipping a cool drink on a hot summer evening. I know we enjoy it more than they do. They may see it as a chore, but we are blessed within our hearts. Those visits are indeed cherished. Their time with us is precious.

So in relating to God, many times our time with Him may seem forced or even a daily chore, yet when we do God is pleased. When we ignore Him, He is hurt for sure, as we are when our kids are too busy to stop by the house.

So let's bless God today with a genuine visit . . . even if we have to make ourselves do it! Think of what our time with God does for Him!
