Last week we discussed the fact that although it is important that we who are God’s creative people seek the presence of God daily, it is hard to stick to it.
SO, HOW DO WE FIX THIS?
- I’d say first, acknowledge this fact: When you miss God, He misses you as well; the feeling is mutual. The moment you sense the feeling that you can’t go another day without seeking God, He’s feeling the same way about you! He longs to spend time with you and it disappoints Him when you don’t!
2. Focus on continually being in His presence versus ONLY one designated location at a designated time for a scheduled length of time.
3. Use something simple that can be used in your home, while at work or whenever you seek His presence.
What do YOU do to maintain spending time with God every day?
This coming from a Guy from Inman! See you there
This article could have easily be entitled “Why Is It Hard for “dishwashers” To Spend Time with God? I say that because what you do either as an artist or dishwashers, really should not matter on this subject. I work in MFG and as an artist 55-60 hours a week. Throw in Husband and father, staff pastor, etc. I can list bunches trust me. So the real question is “Why Is It Hard for “ME” To Spend Time with God?.”In my humble but accurate opinion(lol)It’s never about time, it’s about priority. PRIORITY!!
If you make God a priority you will have time always. Because you will make time. How do you make time? You don’t! You rearrange it. Example, stop fretting, worrying and doubting that should clear up at least 2 hrs! Fighting, gossiping, back-bitting, wow our schedule looks almost clear. Really, follow artists it’s about priority. And once you taste the sweetness of time well spent talking and listening to Him there’s no substitute!
Thanks Tony for bringing this up.
