Yesterday, we mentioned the importance of spending time with God so that we can “grow” spiritually and “know” more about God. The Apostle Paul had a desire to know God. He said in Philippians 3:8, “Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord:” In verse 10 he says, “That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death:”
Time with God is crucial for a Christian. A.W. Tozer said, “Some things may be neglected with but little loss to the spiritual life, but to neglect communion with God is to hurt ourselves where we cannot afford it.”
As we, hopefully, get towards the end of this Coronavirus pandemic, many people will go back to their busy lives that they were living before. However, let’s make sure that we do not get “too” busy. Be sure to spend some with God. We desperately need to grow as children of God. There is no other way to do this than to spend an adequate amount of time with God.
