 Time with God – Unhurried and Uninterrupted
But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night.
A real Christian stands out in the crowd! Their character is deeper, their ideas fresher, their spirit softer, their courage greater, their leadership better, their concerns wider, their compassion more genuine, their convictions more concrete. They are joyful in spite of difficult circumstances and show wisdom far beyond their years. And they are full of surprises: you think you have them boxed in, but they turn out to be unpredictable. When you are around them you feel slightly off balance because you do not know what to expect next. Over time you realize that their unexpected ideas and actions can be trusted. Why? Because these people have a strong relationship with the Lord - one that is renewed day by day. The Psalmist said: "Their delight is in the law of the Lord, and on His law they meditate day and night." They have a spiritual root system that reaches down to streams of living water. Consequently, what they put their hand to prospers. Too few of us ever reach this level. How come? Because we are just too busy! The arch enemy of spiritual growth is busyness, which is closely tied to something the Bible calls 'worldliness' - getting caught up with society's agenda, to the neglect of walking with God. Any way you cut it, a key ingredient in real Christianity is time. Not left over time, not throw away time, but quality time. Time for contemplation. Time for meditation. Time for reflection. Unhurried, uninterrupted time with God.
