1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Rejoice always, pray without ceasing,
give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus
for you.
For many of us, a day goes something like this: Pray, do what the day calls for, pray, sleep. Hopefully, doing what the day calls for includes time in the Word of God and serving Him in some way. And surely, if something goes wrong, we are wise enough to add additional prayer to our schedule. Why do we settle for so little when so much more is available to us?
We have the opportunity and the privilege to communicate with the Creator, Our Creator, throughout the day. We can have as many touch points with Almighty God as we would like. Not only do we have the opportunity to call on Our Heavenly Father with our solicitations, we also have the opportunity to delight the Lord with our praise and worship. After all, what father does not delight in the visitations of his children? And what child does not delight in the comforts of a loving father?
Prayer
Heavenly Father, we thank You that we can come to You at any time. We rejoice in having access to Your throne. We pray that the Holy Spirit will inspire us to come to You throughout the day to praise You and to worship You. May we learn to make You an integral part of the fabric of our lives.
