pray for relationship with God – make time for Jesus to nourish your soul and find peace amidst chaos.

Message: In the hurried pace of life, it is easy to overlook the importance of carving out time for our spiritual growth. The question posed in the note challenges us to reflect on our priorities: “Do you have time for Jesus?” This is not just a casual inquiry; it is a profound invitation to deepen our relationship with our Savior. Jesus, who desires to walk with us daily, is often put on the back burner as we juggle work, family, and various commitments. Yet, making time for Him is essential, as this relationship nourishes our souls, brings peace amid chaos, and provides guidance through life’s uncertainties. It is a reminder that our days can be filled with numerous activities, yet they may lack true purpose if we neglect that time in communion with Jesus. Establishing a daily rhythm of prayer, reflection, and worship helps us align our lives with God’s will. It is during these moments that we can lay our burdens down, seek forgiveness, and find renewal. The decision to prioritize our time with Jesus has the power to transform not only our lives but also how we interact with those around us. So as we consider our schedules and commitments, let us ask ourselves honestly if we genuinely have time for Jesus and what steps we can take to ensure He occupies a central role in our lives. Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, I come before You with a humble heart, aware of the distractions and demands that fill my daily life. I recognize that in the rush to achieve my goals and fulfill my responsibilities, I sometimes forget to make time for You, the very source of my strength and peace. Today, I choose to pause and reflect on my priorities. Help me, Lord, to see the importance of carving out moments in my day to connect with You, to seek Your guidance and to grow in faith. Lord Jesus, I invite You into every aspect of my life. May our conversations not be limited to the quiet hours of dawn or the stillness of evening, but may I also seek You in the midst of my busy days. Teach me how to weave my prayers throughout my tasks, letting my heart stay attuned to Your presence. Fill me with a desire to seek You first, knowing that when I do, everything else falls into place. Holy Spirit, guide me as I seek to establish a routine of devotion. Help me to silence the noise around me so that I can hear Your gentle whisper, reminding me of Your love and grace. I long for those moments of intimacy with You, where I can lay down my worries and receive Your comfort. Grant me the discipline to prioritize our relationship above all else, and the wisdom to recognize where I can redirect my time and attention. As I take time to meditate on Your Word, I pray that it fills my heart and shapes my thoughts. Let my life be a reflection of Your light, shining brightly in a world that often feels dark and chaotic. I pray that my commitment to spend time with You inspires others to seek a deeper relationship with You as well. May my life be a testament to the peace and fulfillment that comes from knowing You. Thank You, Lord, for always being available, always ready to welcome me into Your embrace. Help me to remember that time spent with You is never wasted, but rather, it is the foundation upon which I can build a life of purpose and joy. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
