I Remember You
When we have troubles, we as God’s children turn to God.The believing heart is like a needle in a compass. You can turn it with your finger, but when you withdraw the pressure it will turn toward its pole. The force of trials, the demands of work, or an overpowering lethargy can make us indifferent to our highest love, but this cannot continue because our only rest is in God.
Do you find you are so busy that there is little time for meditation? This is an exercise so nourishing to faith, love and grace. A transient thought of God may greatly bless, just as a touch of the Saviour’s garment healed a woman. (Matthew 9:21-22). When we meditate, we lean on His embrace and enjoy the full fellowship of His love.
David said, “I remember You on my bed, I meditate on You in the night watches” (Psalm 63:6). Oh for more meditation! It would mean more grace and more joy. I pray for all to find pleasure in our sleepless hours and enter into close fellowship with Him through heavenly meditation.
Private meditation and devotion should be a dialogue between your soul and God. The Lord speaks to us through Scripture, and by prayer we speak to Him. If you feel prayer is not urgent, read your Bible and hear His voice; you may then find it in your heart to pray.
Speak to Him as you would to a friend. When you have expressed all your thoughts, let the Lord speak again, and realize His presence.
Prayer, so vital to the Christian life. Our Father in heaven loves us and wants to hear your voice. Give Him all you burdens and joys that this life gives you.
Prayerfully yours,
Nancy
