Deeper Intimacy With God Through PrayerSample

Day 12: Abide in Him

“Finally, prayer is our ultimate conversation of knowing and being known, of loving and being loved. This communion with our Father sustains us for this lifetime and whets our appetites for the next.” (Dudley J. Delffs)

Lord, teach me to abide in You. I want to learn to stay in Your shelter so that I can rest in Your shadow. 

One day in Your courts is better than a thousand days anywhere else. If I can’t go with You, Father, I don’t want to go at all!

Your path is the only one worth taking. Thank You for making it known to me. Fill me with joy in Your presence as I ever seek to abide from this time forth and forevermore!
