Hectic Mornings, Chaotic Afternoons
To all my fellow car line moms, I have discovered we are not alone in our afflictions in this season of coming and going. Finding space to breathe and a rhythm to move toward our heavenly Father sometimes seems daunting. The hectic scene of a morning filled with tears, screams, and messes, then the kids wake up, and it’s their turn. To the afternoon chaos of all the activities, all the guilt of another fast-food meal, and all the shame of feeling like a failure one more day.
Our souls long for the presence of God, but how do we get there? My prayer, as we journey through these next few weeks together, is that He will peel the curtain back for us one layer at a time. He desires us to incline in His presence, and I believe He will reveal to us every step.
Distractions will come, and destruction will rear its ugly head as you commit to spending daily time with Him. Give yourself grace just as He will give you. Find a few minutes when you can. It may be sitting on the potty or in your cozy bed, or if you are like me, it will be a warm cup of goodness in your favorite chair.
It is good to be near to God. You don’t have to be all cleaned up before you get there. You don’t have to wipe the sticky cinnamon rolls off, nor do you have to figure out how to wipe your heart clean on your own. There is no organic cleaner that can do what His presence can.
He does all of that. He does all the cleaning, all the healing, all the restoring. He knows what we need and that we cannot do it for ourselves.
He sees us. He loves us. He is beckoning us into His presence.
Pray
Dear God, I long to be in Your presence. Holy Spirit, help me to make this priority of spending time with my heavenly Father a nonnegotiable. Amen.
