Resting in God's Love: An Advent StorySample

RECEIVING THE LOVE OF GOD

Use this simple tool for 5-10 minutes of silence and solitude.

1- Take 10 deep breaths – with each inhale, pray silently “Jesus,” and on the exhale, pray, “You love me.”

2- Your mind might run wild, but spend the first few moments resting in God’s love.

3- Read ­­­Ephesians 3:18-19 multiple times. Read until certain words or phrases feel like they’re being ‘highlighted’ for you. Ask God what he might be saying to you.

4- Pray those impressions back to God. Try praying out loud, writing in a journal, or changing your physical posture (open hands or arms wide, kneel down, or lift your head).

Take a Next Step: Save a verse image for Ephesians 3:18-19 and share it with someone today. It is the reason for the season!
