Melanie, how do you find time to connect with God?

What a privilege it is to be able to connect with our Maker! I find myself praying and reflecting and worshipping Him throughout the day. My favorite part of the day, however, is those cool sunny mornings when I can go on a quiet walk before my family is awake. During those wonderful walks, I’m able to have uninterrupted time alone with God before the craziness begins at the Dobson house.

Mesha, how do you find time to connect with God?

God is my friend…I talk to him throughout the day and sometimes I still away for quite moments with Him. I connect most with God when I dance. Using the gifts he gave me to give back to him is my highest form of praise and is also my main objective when writing. I want my stories to touch and help someone. I also see God in everything. I am always amazed with His creations. I am a creative soul so I find beauty in things that some may not even notice and in the beauty I see God.

Trish, how do you find time to connect with God?

Isn’t it something that we struggle with this? Finding time with God—you’d think it would be at the top of the list. I’m certainly not as consistent as I’d like to be. But I try to focus on God for a brief time every morning, as soon as I get out of bed. I don’t exactly pray; I simply shut my mind off and sit still, in case there’s anything He wants to plant in my mind or heart for the day. I’m always amazed at how often my day is focused and productive when I do that. And I do my Bible study during lunch, if I’m home. Other than that, I’m just constantly touching base with Him during the day, while I’m driving or carrying out some task, like laundry. I try very hard to listen for His guidance as often as I can.

MAUNDY THURSDAY – THE LAST SUPPER (Luke 22:14-22)

¹⁴When the hour came, Jesus and his apostles reclined at the table. ¹⁵And he said to them, "I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. ¹⁶For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it finds fulfillment in the kingdom of God."

¹⁷After taking the cup, he gave thanks and said, "Take this and divide it among you. ¹⁸For I tell you I will not drink again of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes."

¹⁹And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me."

²⁰In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.

Today’s book may not seem like one to highlight during Passion Week, but I’m a technology geek, thus the blog, and I just love innovative ideas. Jesus’ ministry for three years was unlike anyone had ever seen. The religious folk were fine with keep their man-made traditions and didn’t want someone to rock the boat. Sometimes you need to rock the boat to encourage growth.
