MARVEL AT THE AWESOME WONDER OF Being Able To Commune With The King of The Universe Any Time, Any Place. Never take this amazing privilege for granted.
Dear Jesus, We confess that often we do take this awesome prayer privilege for granted. Even worse, at times we act as if we are doing You a favor by spending time talking with You. Forgive us for our foolish arrogance! Amen.
Beloved, I am pleased that you recognize and repent of your foolishness. The best antidote to such thoughts is remembering who I AM: King of kings and Lord of lords, dwelling in dazzlingly inapproachable Light. My eyes are like blazing fire. My voice is like the sound of rushing waters. My face is like the sun shining in all its brilliance. I am also your Shepherd, tenderly leading you step by step through your life. We want you to realize how precious you are to Me - how much I delight in you. I long for you to reciprocate by delighting in Me.
I listen to your heart as well as to your words. When you approach My throne of grace joyfully, anticipating the wondrous pleasure of communing with Me, both you and I are blessed!
- Jesus
