I have to confess-I am one of those who has struggled with my daily time with Jesus. While I would like to disciplined, I can’t honestly say that it comes easy for me.
Nearly 9 years ago, however, a friend introduced me to LIFE Journal. It is designed one reads the Hebrew Scriptures through once, and the New Testament twice over calendar year. In addition, can journal your learnings from your time spent in presence of God, noting 4 things:
S-Scripture (Write out the passage that speaks to you that day.)
O-Observation (What you see or hear as God speaks to you from the Scripture.)
A-Application (How this learning applies to your life now.)
P-Prayer (Write out your prayer for what you hope God will do in you.)
This has worked for me. While I still have a long way to go to say that spending time with Jesus 7 days a week, I have so significantly improved my time with Him, and the quality of time, that can honestly say it transformed my life.
I offer some the learnings, insights, questions, struggles have helped me to grow. Like of us, still have long way to go. But, pray that musings will occasional stepstone your path to closer walk with Jesus.
Yours in the Cause of Christ,
MiklColt
