Quiet Time

How hard should it be to commune with the God of the everything? My quiet time is one of the most frustrating areas of my Christian life and its all my fault, probably. I am lazy when it comes to my relationship with God and this is where it shows up most.

Why do I fail?

1. Firstly I must recognise that I fail because I'm human. I am not perfect and therefore I am prone to fail the God I love.

2. I am lazy. I don't make an effort.

3. I don't make time. There is always something else to be done. I am in too much of a rush to get to work, or too busy in work or too busy watching tv.

4. I don't value a relationship with God. I just don't.

Where to from here?

So how can this be changed and how can I pick up my relationship with my King Jesus and move on? Well tonight I'm going to sit down with my Bible and a notebook and spend time with God. And we'll start there and see where this journey takes us. Watch this space...
