An Invitation

God speaks. He speaks into our hearts and minds through people, nature, the church. He also speaks to us through His Word. His Word is His love letter to us, His way of helping us remember who we are and assure us of His promises. His Word is the road map to help us live the passionate adventurous lives He always meant for us.

These blog entries are teasers. Insights and revelations to encourage you to read the bible, the greatest piece of literature that was written especially for you, God's child.

Stop




Psalm 9:1 (NIV) I will praise you, O LORD, with all my heart;
I will tell of all your wonders.

2 I will be glad and rejoice in you;
I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.

We are always running. As soon as we open our eyes in the morning, our minds run to the tasks we need to do for the day--preparing breakfast, getting the kids ready for school, answering the long list of unread emails at work, and spending quality time with our family and loved ones. We're frustrated because we never get to tick off all the items on our to-do lists. Yet, in the midst of all this running, the Lord asks us to stop and spend time with Him. Today, stop, close your door and spend quality time with the Lord. Remember who He is--the Creator of you and the universe. Praise Him from your heart and recount all the wonderful things that He has done for you. Bask in His presence.
