Spending Time with God I

God intimately resides deep in our hearts and He longs for us to share our hearts with Him. The One who loves you and calls you His wants you to confide in Him. What feeds your soul? What do you love and what don't you like?

This might sound crazy, but God actually loves to spend time with you. We often worry about how to spend time with God, struggling with how we can reach him. But what if it was the other way around?

What if God is the one longing for you -- to let Him into your world -- to explore together what moves your heart and feeds your soul?

Listen and hear His quiet, soft whispers to you.
{listen} "I am standing at the door and knocking. If you hear my voice and open the door, I will come into your home and share a meal with you, and you with me." Rev.3:20

The door Jesus is standing behind is the doorway to your heart. And no one can open it except you.
The home Jesus longs to step into? It's the innermost place where you can just be you. To be known. To rest. Isn't that home?

The meal Jesus longs for you to share with Him?

Soul food. Will you let God refresh your soul with what uniquely refuels you (the most simplest things will do). And let go of what simply drains you (even the things that appear to be no-brainer to others)?

{confide} Uncover my heart and my story, Jesus. Help me let you back into those tender places where I can just be me. Help me to hear your whispers.
