God Time

Life can be like a ball of string - some times we're wound up so tightly we feel we might break if one more thing pulls our "string" any tighter; other times we can feel the complete opposite, feeling completely worn out by everything life has flung at us we're more like an unravelled ball of string!


So where am I going with this ball of string? Well to keep our lives from getting unravelled or wound up too tightly, we need to have an active prayer life.

Prayer will help us to wind up the unravelled ball of string or release the pressure on the over tight ball of string. But that can't just happen without our cooperation - we must find a place and a time when we can be alone with God in prayer, to talk to Him but also to listen to Him.

In Psalm 5:3 the psalmist says "Listen to my voice in the morning, Lord. Each morning I bring my requests to you and wait expectantly". Do you spend time each morning waiting on God?


We all have such busy lives these days, so you may find it impossible to find a regular time/place to spend in prayer. So can I make a suggestion? Put time in your diary or calendar to spend with God in prayer - it has allowed me to spend much more time in prayer than I was previously doing when I was just trying to fit it in when/where I could - that doesn't work - God needs and wants you to spend quality time with Him.

So whether you're feeling wound up tight or completely unravelled and desperate to spend time alone with God, make a cup of tea or coffee, get your calendar and mark in your appointments with God, your "God time".
