Soaking in His Presence

There is no better place to be than in God's Presence. This is where we get to know our Abba, Father more intimately. Sometimes we need to slow down and realize what matters most. We need to go back to the Father's Heart. It is very easy to get caught up in the moment and the wonderful things we do but if our focus isn't God than it all doesn't mean anything. Peter walked on water but as soon as he started to see the storm, he began to sink (Matthew 14:29). Why? He took his eyes off Jesus. Instead of looking to our left or looking to our right, we need to zoom in on Christ. He knows what's best for us and how to help us. It doesn't matter what it looks like or what it sounds like. God has everything under control only if you have completely surrendered your life to Him. It takes time and it takes energy but it is all worth it. We should want to spend time with God just like we want to spend time with our families and closest friends. He should be part of daily lives just like breathing. Once we have Him as our center, we wouldn't want to be anywhere else.
