Time with daddy

I was listening to a few sermons today on waiting on the Lord (Isaiah 40:31) and prophetic stuff — and really felt God calling me back to intimacy with Him. I’ve been feeling kinda far and distant from Him lately from all the busyness + exams and things, and I realize most of it all has just been my neglecting to put priority into finding time to block off a period of time just to encounter the True and Living God. I’ve done a lot of ‘devos’ and bible studies and what not — but lately from all the busyness I just feel I haven’t really ‘wasted’ much time with God, haven’t really come to His throne for the sake of Him. Instead its like I’ve built up a intercessory fortress/tower in my room where I do battle and seek the things of God — which are good, but the heart of it all is to Know, intimately KNOW God!

And God has just been putting on my heart that I’ve been claiming all these promises, trusting Him with my relationship, finances, a new laptop, academics, ministry etc. etc.. but I haven’t really come to His throne to seek Him, His heart — just to be with Him, sit in His presence and be filled up.

So today has really just getting back to that… after all, at the end of the day — what really matters is our relationship with God, all the works, marks, relationships, memories, material things are secondary.

But what is of utmost priority is to be fully satisfied on Him — that way as we ‘tune to His voice’ and as our heart beats with His, as He lines our ways to His we will be sensitive to His voice and do those specifics that He has for us to do; rather than all the busyness / extraneous things which are not even important/lasting. And the fears of man, and the desires of the flesh — all that will fade away, as we  become more romanced, and enthralled at the beauty, greatness, graciousness, mercifulness of our God :)
