But God is a jealous God. Even more importantly, God loves us and wants to spend quality time with Him just like a close friend would. If you’ve missed God you’ve missed the whole point. If I wash dishes just to wash dishes then I’ve missed it. If I don’t do things for God all my hard work is in vain. Everything we do in our everyday lives should glorify Him whether it’s making your kids breakfast or healing the blind. One of the main reasons I came on the World Race was to get closer to God not farther away.
Starting now, I’m going to be more intentional about spending time with God. I physically feel drained when I’m not reading my Bible, praying or worshiping Him on a regular basis. God is where I get my strength and joy. I’m glad I’m learning this now and not in 4 months from now. I don’t want to miss out on what God has in store for me this year or for the people I meet.
Next month, my team, Trumpets of One, are going to Byron Bay. We don’t have any local contacts so we really have to rely on God to guide us. Our teams will be in hard core prayer and will really have to listen patiently for God to answer.
