God All to Myself


"...every believer may and must have his time when he is indeed himself alone with God. Oh, the thought to have God all alone to myself, and to know that God has me all alone to Himself!" --Andrew Murray

One of the great tragedies of life is the little time that we children give to our Heavenly Father. We rush about stressed out worried about so many things, when only one thing is needed that will not be taken from us when we engage in it. As we rest in God's presence meditating on His Word and His love for us, we receive a gift that nothing on earth can supply. There is in that sweet place strength, peace, joy, hope, forgiveness, inspiration, encouragement, truth, renewal, creativity, courage, and so many other blessings that to list would take all morning.

Each morning I read these free devotions:

I use the M'Cheyne Reading System, which supplies a minimum of four chapters a day and enables me to read through the entire Bible each year.

How do you spend time alone with God?
