Last weekend, I was blessed to have some extended quiet time with the Lord. He spoke to me beautifully about the power of quiet reflection. In the upcoming posts, I will be sharing some of the lessons He taught me during this special time spent in His presence.
Our lives are so full of busyness and noise. However, if we take time to step back and listen for the Lord’s voice in whatever environment we may find ourselves, we can be blessed and refreshed in a special way. This is a new way for me to encounter God–to experience Him with a quieted mind and heart, no matter how distracting my current surroundings may be. There is a certain power I discovered in this kind of communion with God. When you settle your mind before the Lord right where you are and tune in to His blessed presence, He can truly speak to you in a special way.
My personal favorite reflective exercise has been Lectio Divina. Lectio Divina is reading of the Word combined with reflection. It provides a great opportunity to draw closer to God as His Word penetrates deep into our hearts and minds. Such reflective time spent with God in nature is particularly refreshing. Our Lord speaks in a profound way when we encounter Him through His creation.
May you draw closer to the Lord and hear His voice today!
