Meditative Moments

11/14/11 Our Lord had times of meditation alone and times of quiet conversations with His disciples. He knew the importance of pulling apart from the whirlwind of life for them and for Himself as well. It would behoove us to follow that example.
In our busyness there is often little time amid all the turmoil of daily responsibilities to pull apart for reading and reflection. How does one "work in" a quiet thought or the opening of God's word's for prayer and meditation? That's what Monday's are all about. That's why I always blog on Monday. Even if it's just a taste of scripture for us to chew on all week, it's essential to our spiritual well-being. In your secret/quiet place for communing with the Lord, look to Him for refuge and strength. Trust Him. Remember His love.

We wait in hope for the LORD; he is our help and our shield.
In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name.
May your unfailing love be with us, LORD, even as we put our hope in you. (Psalm 33:20-22)
