Get Away with God

“Do you ever long to hide away?…Do you ever long to simply slip away from the craziness?

While a trip to an island paradise probably isn’t on your horizon, there is a place you can run away to, a place you can hide anytime you choose. It’s in the heart, in the arms, in the presence of God.

Close you eyes…for a heartbeat for a moment, for more. Breathe in the sweet, steadying, ever-with-you presence of God. Allow Him to refresh you, to renew and strengthen you, to reset your priorities. Trust Him to keep the enemies st bay while He quiets your spirit and gills your soul with the joyful song of His love, His saving grace.

Too often God is painted as a taskmaster, always demanding more. But today, consider this image of God instead: ‘God’s my island hideaway, keeps danger far from the shore, throws garlands of hosannas around my neck’ (Psalm 32:7 The Message).

Seek out your very own tropical getaway. Get with God today…for a moment or maybe more… (Thankful)
