Are You Too Uncomfortable to Spend Time with God?
“If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear.”
Psalm 66:18

Ponder This
Do you know what quiet time is? Fellowship with a holy God. The reason some folks don’t have a quiet time is they feel uncomfortable. They don’t want to look God in the face because they have sin in their lives.
What did Adam do after he had sinned and God came walking in the Garden? Adam fled. Before that, Adam had quiet time with God, didn’t he? Adam and God had boundless, unending fellowship. But after Adam chose to disobey God and sinned, he didn’t want to look God in the face.
Practice This
Are you reluctant to have a quiet time? Maybe it’s because there’s sin in your life. Ask God to shine His light into you. Then wait for His answer so you can repent.
FOR YOUR GIFT TO THE MINISTRY
Front Porch Moments by Gayle Foster
WITH KEY INSIGHTS FROM HER FATHER, ADRIAN ROGERS
I try to unplug each morning with Jesus with just my rocking chair, my Bible, and a pen.
Having a secret place is very important because I know that Jesus is always there waiting for me. I know where I can find Him! His presence is everywhere, but there are places where it is so thick you can cut it with a knife. You may not even have a front porch, but there is a secret place for you as well. God’s invitations are for anyone who will respond. There is no more important request than the one found in Psalm 27:8: “My heart has heard You say, ‘Come and talk with Me.’ And my heart responds, ‘Lord, I am coming.’”
