Be Still

Many times I have gone into my prayers room (my secret place with God), with my own agenda. Telling God my plans, my needs and expecting him to come on board, because I use scripture to justify my action. But I have found through the years of ritual - all the while as a good thing because I am spending time with God.  I have failed to go to him asking him what his agenda for me and my life holds. I am reminded of  Psalm 46:10 "Be still and know that I am God." Quiet your mind, soul and body.  Just wait on him, allow him to speak. For your time alone with God should not only be about you and your needs.  It should be a two way relationship.  Sit back, Listen and Wait.  Allow him to speak to you in the quiet place. "For only in him do we live and move and have your being." Acts 17:28
