It’s easy to get caught up in the mundane, daily grind of work, ball practice, bills, housework, etc. If we’re not careful, we work on everything else except the one relationship that matters above all others: our relationship with God.
When pressed on what the greatest commandment of all is, Jesus responded, “Love the Lord your God with all you heart!” (See Matthew 22:37ff)
Since the greatest command is to love the Lord with all our hearts, I want to challenge you to set aside priority time with him each day. I encourage you spend time in prayer and in his word. As you spend quality time with the Lord, your realationship begins to grow!
If you need resources to assist in your spiritual growth, we’re here to help. In 2009 I was a contributing author in the One Year Devotional Prayer Book available online here or at our local Lifeway store. The One Year Devotional Prayer Book includes a morning and evening prayer to guide you as well as a devotional thought to help kick-start you time with the Lord.
Below is a video of Dr. Johnny Hunt talking about the book.
Proud to do the journey with you!
