...Return [to God], that your sins may be erased (blotted out, wiped clean), that times of refreshing (of recovering from the effects of heat, of reviving with fresh air) may come from the presence of the Lord.
We all need times of blessed quiet because we can find physical, emotional, and spiritual refreshing in those times.
We live in a noisy world, and if we are not careful we can become addicted to noise and constant activity. Make sure you find time in your life to just be quiet and listen.
Are you asking God to speak to you, but you never take the time to get quiet and just listen? It honors God when we give Him regular time. Sit with Him and enjoy His presence—it will be refreshing to your entire being.
Time is one of the most important things we can give God. It tells Him He is important to us and that we realize we cannot manage life properly without Him.
Prayer of the Day: Lord, help me slow down and spend quiet time with You. Teach me to listen, rest in Your presence, and find peace and strength for each day, amen.
