APRIL 27

Jeremiah 45:5-“Seekest thou great things for thyself/”

Remember to read “My Utmost for His Highest” for Today

ASKING

What am I asking of Jesus? Is it more” stuff” for myself today?

Or am I so tired of asking I finally surrender my way?

Am I asking for Him to accomplish something I might do or say?

Or am I requesting more of Jesus, more of His Presence every day?

Lord, forgive my fearful questions. Forgive “MY STUFF” all the time.

 I need to learn to be more available to ask what is on God’s Mind.

So I will abandon my questions releasing myself to His tender embrace

From this day forward and forever, seeking His Presence, I’ll walk in Grace.

JOURNAL JOTTINGS: Have you fallen into the trap of pursing great spiritual adventures or things for yourself? What might the Lord be teaching you in His Silence? IN HIS PRESENCE IS FULLNESS OF JOY AND AT HIS RIGHT HAND ARE PLEASURES FOR EVERMORE. Journal your personal journey into His Presence. How do you know you are there? Why did you take so long to move in His direction? Journal the results.

Dear Lord, Keep me from the distractions of daily seeking Your presence. Help me to PRACTISE THE PRESENCE OF JESUS often. What a privilege and joy it is to walk with you. Thank you Lord for all you are to me in these intimate times with You. In Jesus’ Name, AMEN.
