DOING FLOWS OUT OF BEING
Do you want to "BE" in a relationship with God? What would it take for you to "BE" closer to God? There's an interesting thought... Jesus taught it again and again... if you abide with Him, you obey. If you obey, you love Him. If you love Him, you will be with Him.
Take a look at John 15:1-17
Listed below are 5 suggestions in the area of “being.”
- Check the ones you’ve tried before.
- Circle a new strategy that you will try out this coming week.
Experiencing: Spend time in nature. Allow God’s creation – water, forests, and mountains – to revive your spirit. You may hear God more clearly while in nature.
Feeling: Notice the emotions you feel throughout the day and bring God into the moment. Support and honor your own emotions and those displayed by others.
Listening: God speaks to us throughout the day. Take the time to be silent and listen to Him. Lord, what do you want me to do? Obey His promptings right away.
Reflecting: Spend time before bed reviewing how God worked in your life that day. Tell Him what You noticed Him doing in your life that day. Thank Him.
Waiting: When you pray about something, and God doesn’t seem to be answering your prayer – wait on the Lord. He will answer you in His own time and way.
