On the Move
In our age of hurry and haste it seems rather hard to be quiet and just sit still. Do you agree with that? In our electronic age, the idea of meditation seems to be a lost art. It is a religious lack of our time.
The main reason for this is the tremendous rush and hurry of our complex society.
Now, I am not making a plea for some kind of a secluded life or the life of a hermit. The torch that you carry (and everyone has one) must be carried, but not too fast or at a rate that it will be blown out. I am persuaded that few really realize the importance assigned to meditation in the Bible. IT IS A COMMAND OF GOD. (wow) Joshua was told to meditate on the book of the law day and night; Timothy was counseled to "Meditate on these things."
I have done, and make it a daily practice, to do my following words...meditate. Please sit still, turn off the world and turn on God. This is what you will find.....
"My meditation of Him shall be sweet." (Psalm 104:34)
My prayer for you:
Lord, I ask that you give this one the encouragement, the will power and determination, and the blessings of sitting still in you presence in the area where they are right now.
Amen
