Take Time for God

This is a call that we need to heed in our lives!!! Take Time for God many times throughout the day, everyday!!! Prayer is a beautiful gift from God for it gives us a communication line with Him. The image that I like is prayer being like an electrical outlet. Everyday we plug into the continual conversation that is going on between the Father and the Son. One of the commentaries for this morning led me to reflect on this topic. The Scripture passage is this, "The Lord is slow to anger and rich in kindness, forgiving wickedness and crime" (Nm 14:18). From that passage, the commentator makes the following statement: "So wide is God's mercy that no sin is too great or too small for forgiveness. So much narrower is our charity that we often find the small annoyances the hardest to forgive. The more often we turn in prayer to the all-forgiving God, the more we will become like him in extending the hand of pardon to others in every daily circumstance" (Magnificat, 77). This is something that we need to think about and pray about because the more we turn to God in prayer the more we will become like Him in all things. God can touch our lives and hearts in a very beautiful and special way. All we need to do is be open to God working in our lives and take the time to be with Him in prayer!!! Have a blessed day!!!
