Besides
prayer, another way we can spend time alone with God is in meditation. “Commune with your own heart upon your
bed, and be still.” (Psalms
4:4) Meditation gives us opportunity to
look into our lives and profit from our mistakes. We can also reflect and meditate on all the
things God has done for us. Meditate on
the record of God’s goodness to His people.
This will help us to focus our thoughts on God’s ability to help us
rather than our inability to help ourselves.
Read the Bible’s accounts of God’s goodness and meditate on them. Don’t
get caught up in the pace of life established by our society because of greed.
Get the world issues out of your mind. Meditate on the things that are
important in your life that will make you a better Christian.
When do you usually feel closer to God?
