In order for us to grow strong and to experience all God has for us , we need to get to know God on a personal basis.

• It’s important to be taught God’s word.
• It’s important for corporate worship,
• It’s important to be apart of a local church,

But individually, If we don’t have a personal time with God, we will be missing out on what God has for us.

Now the Lord is with us, all the time, Christ is in us, “The hope of Glory” He said, “I will never leave you, I will never forsake you.”

 So all through the day we can walk and talk with the Lord.  But, during our day we often get distracted through obligations, activities, people, and He isn’t our total focus.  That’s why we all we time alone with God.

Jesus said to His disciples “Could you not watch with me one hour.”  We all need to tend that time some were in our day.

The idea of starting our day with the Lord:

• The first hour of each day;
• The first day of each week;
• The first dollar of every ten we earn.

We are to be tithers not only with finances but our time.  Honour the Lord with your First Fruits – Proverbs 3:9, 10

If we honour the Lord with the first fruits of all our increase- He said …. Our barns will be filled, our presses will overflow.  Whatever you contain your resources in, He said it will overflow.  Why? Because we put first things first.

This is a time for all of us to take Psalm 42:1,2 and meditate on it and ask ourselves: Does our soul thirst for God.

“Thirst” – crave, an intense desire, a driving passion in us.  He relates it have to a deer longing for the water brooks, the deer would long after it, pursue it, go after the brook to have their thirst satisfied, they would plunge into the brook.

What a thought, you and I plunging into His presence, to live in the presence of His life, that we long for it.  We were made for fellowship with God, so set some time aside to spend with the Lord.

He is the life giving water, as you wait upon Him, there are wonderful exchanges that take place.

Isiah 40: says “For your weakness, He will give you His strength.”

Let me give you a thought:  As a runner prepares to run, he hydrates Himself, because he knows if he doesn’t, somewhere in the run he will need water.  Before we test the day let’s hydrate ourselves in the presence of God so we have that living water flowing through out our day.

We love you, we believe for God’s best in your life.

You were created for it.

Much Love,

Ps. Eileen
