Time, it is what God wants of us, with
us. He created it for us…Time, the sun rising & setting, the tides rolling
in at the behest of the moon, the seasons changing ~ all the markings of time.
God doesn’t need time for Himself, He is
yesterday, today and tomorrow. This is all for us, His gift to us and He wants
to share in our time.
Our world is so fast, so inundated with
noise and the clamor of consumption, that we so easily miss the subtle grace of
the moment. God is in every moment, but how often we miss Him. There is such
Peace at our fingertips when we stop to linger over His Word, when we pause to
listen to the joyous ways He speaks to us ~ a child’s laughter, the coo of the
birds at dawn, that first morning breeze. He speaks, He calls out to our hearts
with His whisperings of Love…now is our
time to listen.
““Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me.
Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real
rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced
rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep
company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”
Matthew 11:28-30 ~ The Message Version
