I wonder what you’d think about knowing how, when, where and why we can plan a meeting with our maker… without having to die first!

A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
Someone once asked a Believer how he knew that the Creator God existed, to which he answered, “Of course He exists, I was only just talking with Him this morning!” So today’s chapter holds a lot of Jesus’ teaching about prayer (communication with the Creator God) and having a personal connection with our Maker right now – while we’re still alive. But one thing that stands out for me today, is Jesus’ teaching on meeting planning – planning time to meet personally and regularly with Father God. The Creator God has revealed Himself to us as Father God.[a] So, like a daughter, I can now sit at the feet of my Maker each morning in the quiet of my own home. [v6]

Your concerns for today
You heard my plea, O God, now don’t close Your ears to my cry for relief. [Lamentations 3:56]
3. Admit: “…Forgive us our sin as we forgive those who sin against us…”
As I go about my daily business, Father God, help me to meditate on Your precepts and consider Your ways. [Psalm 119:15]
4. Protect: “…Lead us not into temptation but delivers us from evil.”
I see what great love that You, Father, have lavished on me, that I should be called a child of God! And that is what I am! [1 John 3:1]
