Draw near to God,
and He will draw
near to you.
James 4. 8
It's not as complicated
as we make it.
When we draw near to God,
we discover He does not
just show up,
but God shows us
He has been here all along,
waiting on us.
He is not the one who moved.
Wherever we are
is not too far.
How can we draw near
to Him today?
Every careful loving act,
every intentional grace to others,
not filling up the day
with good works and words,
but being faithful to Him.
And that may mean,
even in the midst of our busy-ness
and business,
to spend long-term,
unhurried togetherness with Jesus.
We scroll through our phones.
What if we wasted a little time
with Him instead?
His Presence changes everything
when we realize He is already here.
O LORD,
Show us how to draw near to You
even in this mess we are in,
even in the chaos,
even when time is rushing past.
Help us to be intentional,
not in finding time to be with You,
but making time,
running toward You.
No time with You
is ever wasted.
You multiply it.
