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.
Our lives matter to God. The details of our day are important to him. He wants to give us direction. He wants to support us and protect us. God enjoys spending time with us, and He is pleased when we spend time with him. God enjoys it when we “chat it up” with him.
Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always. This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. (1 Chronicles 16:11, 1 John 5:14 NIV)
What might it look like to have a chat with God today?
— Find a place where you can be undisturbed and free from distractions.
— Tell God your thoughts and feelings.
— Share your day with God as you would with a friend. What was your experience of this day?
— Review your day with God. What went right? What went wrong? Ask for forgiveness and make amends as necessary.
— Ask for any healing needed.
— Listen carefully. God has a message for you.
— Ask God for knowledge of his will for you and the power to carry it out.
No one understands and cares for us more than God. Only God has the wisdom to give us reliable direction that will fit together with our past, with the present, and the future He has for us.
Prayer: Loving God, I am so grateful that you care for me and are interested in the details of my life. Thank you for giving me the strength and courage to walk in Your will as You reveal it to me. Amen
