Grace and peace to you dear friends,
Considering that I to often have trouble implementing the kind of advice I gave yesterday, I figured a simple follow up thought would be in order. Lets assume that you've decided you do indeed want to make God's Word a treasured part of your day but find it difficult in the business of life to get it in. Start by praying for success in implementing it in your day. This is exactly the kind of thing God wants to hear you ask for and the kind of request that He delights to grant. It may take lots of perseverance on your part to get there but it is well worth it. The value that you place on time with Him can only grow as you spend more and more time seeking Him in prayer. It is an amazing thing as you discover that the treasure you seek in Christ becomes one with the very act of seeking. Oh how precious can the time be that is spent chasing after that which we desire most.
Do not discount the simplicity of this thought. If you want more of Christ and His Word in your life, spend more time asking Him for it.
May the grace of our Lord fill you with an unquenchable hunger for His Word and a desperate thirst for His presence.
For the Joy of Your Faith,
Teagan
