Message:
Will you make time for Jesus today? Do you have time for Jesus? Yes – No.
In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, it is easy to become consumed by our responsibilities, distractions, and overwhelming schedules. However, reflecting on our priorities reveals a critical question: Do we make time for Jesus? The call to prioritize our relationship with Him is essential. Our time with God enriches our hearts and minds, helping us draw strength, peace, and clarity. Each moment spent with Him is a moment of renewal, reflecting on His teachings and the love He has for each one of us. As we ponder this message, let us consider how we can integrate moments of divine connection into our daily routines.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, I come before You with a humble heart, seeking Your presence in the depths of my busy life. I recognize the struggles I often face in balancing my obligations with the quiet moments needed to connect with You. Forgive me for the times I have allowed my calendar to dictate my spirituality. Help me to understand that making time for You is not just a choice but a necessity for my soul’s nourishment.
Lord, as I reflect on this question of time, I ask You to guide me toward setting priorities that align with Your will. Show me the moments in my day where I can carve out space to listen to Your voice, meditate on Your word, and bask in Your love. Whether it be through prayer in the morning, a moment of gratitude during lunch, or quiet contemplation before bed, may my heart always seek to invite You into every experience.
Teach me, O Lord, to approach each day with intentionality, remembering that time spent with You transforms everything else. May the distractions of the world fade in comparison to the joy of Your company. Help me not to see my relationship with You as just another task on a to-do list but as a beautiful opportunity to grow in faith and grace.
Grant me the wisdom to recognize the fleeting nature of time and the significance of seizing it wisely. When I feel overwhelmed, remind me that You are my refuge, and turning to You is a source of strength and peace. May I find joy in these moments, knowing that they are the foundation upon which my life is built.
As I step into today and all its challenges, may I carry the commitment in my heart to make time for You, Jesus, and always return to Your loving embrace. Thank You for Your patience, Your faithfulness, and the assurance that You wait for me, inviting me to come closer. In Jesus’ precious name, I pray. Amen.
