Just For Today I Will Try To Live In Conscious Contact With God

Just for today I will try to live in conscious contact with God praying only for knowledge of His will and the power to carry it out.

On a daily basis, what decisions are we making to try to live in conscious contact with God?




People who love each other will spend as much time together as possible.  Because of God’s love for us, God desires to spend time with us.  When we love God in return, we will want to spend time with Him.  Persons who are in love want to share all of who they are, and what they experience, with each other.  Experiences build the memories that nourish the life they share together.  Each one gets to know the likes and dislikes of the other.  Each one marvels at what their loved one does, and they delight in what they share together.



I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.  (Ephesians 3:16-19 NIV)



As men and women who are learning to live in a loving relationship with God and have a desire to know His will, it is important to speak with God in prayer.  We honour God by expressing our joy and thanksgiving about what He is doing in our lives.  We can ask God for wisdom and guidance as we share our plans with Him.  As we walk in conscious contact with Him, God is faithful to complete what He has begun in us.  God is ever present with us and will tenderly direct and encourage us when we bring our plans to Him and are willing to respond to His input.


Prayer:  Loving God, I want to live in conscious contact with You.  Help me to recognize Your presence with me and Your will for my life.  Fill me with Your power and grace to carry out those things You have planned for me to do.  Amen
