Prayer: Time With GodSample

If you are like me, silence and being still can be difficult. I always love to do lots of things, and finding time for silence and stillness can sometimes be something I don’t make time to do. The problem with this is that God doesn’t typically speak to us in a loud voice amid busyness. The best way to start connecting with God is to not just talk to God but also take time to hear from him. How can you make time to be still with God and reflect on who he is? God is always ready to help us and speak to us; we only need to make space for him.

Challenge: Today, we challenge you to not only talk to God through prayer but to spend 5 minutes in silence listening to God. Allow yourself the space to clear your head and ask God to direct you. Feel free to have a journal nearby to write down your prayers and anything God might be sharing with you.
