Jesus Alone

This past year I have had an enforced time of sitting in my comfy chair because of the pain in my back. I have been feeling good about myself because I have spent the time doing Bible studies and reading Christian books. Because I like to do those things. But I was convicted last night at church (another Bible study)  that I have been too much doing and not enough being. That's right. I can sit in my easy chair and do too much. Because being is harder than doing. Our fast-paced society makes it hard to just sit in Jesus' Presence. But I'm resolved to do that. I'm going to spend some time each day reading the Word and being with Jesus alone. I'll let you know how it goes. "My heart has heard You say, "Come and talk with me". And my heart responds, "Lord, I am coming", Psalm 27:8. NLT

  1. I often wonder if God doesn't keep me awake at night so I can just be still and listen and talk to Him.
