Message:
Do you have time for Jesus? This question serves as a gentle reminder of the importance of prioritizing our relationship with Him amidst our busy lives. In a world filled with distractions and endless obligations, it can be easy to overlook the most significant aspect of our existence—our connection to Christ.
Time is often one of our most precious resources, and how we choose to spend it reflects our true priorities. Jesus desires not just a moment of our time but our heartfelt attention and devotion. When we set aside time for prayer, worship, and reflection, we open the door to a deeper relationship with Him. The calling to make room for Jesus invites us to pause, breathe, and reconnect with the essence of our faith.
Making time for Jesus means creating space for love, grace, and wisdom to enter our lives. It encourages us to trust that by seeking Him first, all other aspects of our lives will fall into place. As we navigate the demands of daily life, let us remember to turn to Jesus for guidance, strength, and peace.
We must ask ourselves if we have allotted time in our schedules to nurture this divine relationship. In doing so, we cultivate a life that honors our commitment to Him and reflects the transformative power of His love in the world around us.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in humility and reverence, acknowledging the chaos and noise that often distracts us from Your presence. We recognize that life can be overwhelming, and amidst the constant busyness, we sometimes lose sight of what truly matters—our relationship with You. We thank You for the constant reminder that You are always there, waiting for us to draw near. Help us to carve out time in our daily routines to connect with You, to listen for Your voice in the midst of our schedules, and to seek Your guidance in every decision we make.
Lord, in our desire to accomplish so much, we often fill our calendars but neglect our spirits. Teach us the importance of rest in You and the value of making space for prayer and reflection. As we pause and turn our hearts towards You, may we feel Your love wrapping around us like a warm embrace. Stir within us a longing to know You more deeply, to understand Your will for our lives, and to live in a manner that brings glory to Your name.
May each moment we spend in prayer draw us closer to You, illuminating the path You have laid out for us. We pray for a heart that prioritizes our time with You over the distractions of the world. Help us to realize that with every second we dedicate to Your presence, we grow stronger and more resilient. Fill us with Your Holy Spirit, guiding our thoughts, our words, and our actions.
We lay before You our burdens, our worries, and our aspirations. We cast aside the notion that we must go it alone; instead, remind us that with You, all things are possible. We ask for Your wisdom to navigate the complexities of life and to discern what is truly important. Lord, may our hearts resound with a resounding “yes” to the question, “Do you have time for Jesus?”
In moments of stillness, may we find courage, clarity, and compassion. Thank You for being our steadfast companion, our comforter, and our guide. We trust that as we seek You first, You will bless us abundantly, filling our lives with joy, peace, and purpose. In Jesus’ name, we pray, Amen.
