Getting Closer to God

DAY 3 OF 5

What do you do with your time?

Many years ago, I was invited to Boris Becker's birthday in Hamburg at short notice. Although I didn't really have time, I did everything I could to be there. Because I wanted to be there.

The same thing happened to me fifteen years ago when I unexpectedly shot through the media as "the singing flight attendant" and was invited to many exciting events. At that time, I was fascinated by being able to meet celebrities, and I did everything possible for me to make that happen. Even if that meant having to get up earlier so as not to miss the flight, postponing appointments and yes, basically adjusting my priorities.

Let's face it. When something is important to us and we definitely don't want to miss out on it, we do everything we can to make it happen! So how does this work with God? Do we really want that time with Him?

Do we want "time with God" when it suits us? Or do we adjust our lives because we want to spend time with God?

If there is one celebrity who is worth putting off all other appointments for, it is God Himself!

And the incredible thing, which I myself to this day can only accept in amazement, is the thought, "God Most High wants time with you!"

God cares what you are going through.

God wants to know from you what moves you.

God wants to share in your deepest thoughts.

God wants to satisfy the desires of your heart.

This thought is incredible! The Creator and Ruler of the world wants to hear from YOU and be close to YOU. He says to you today:

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:6-7 NIV).

Will you do just that right now?

You are a miracle!
