Thought for the week
It can be tempting sometimes to think that if I set this and this time aside for God, then that other time is mine, to spend how I like. But I’ve realised that wasting my time and energy, frittering it away on meaningless things, is, well, a waste, a lost opportunity. I’m God’s all the time – all my time is his, not just some of it. His time is not just when I am in church or praying for example, but also while I’m making dinner or reading a novel. This is dwelling in God’s presence all the time, instead of withdrawing myself from him.
“One thing I ask of the Lord, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple.”
Psalm 27 v 4
