The Importance of Being There

Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him.—Psalm 37:7 (NIV)
If you want to make a big change in your life, practice daily quiet time. Turn off your phone and any distractions and let go of any worries, to-dos, and responsibilities. For five full minutes get in harmony with your surroundings. Listen for God. Draw upon His instruction.
Heavenly Father, help me to remember the importance of quieting my mind so that I can hear You.
