The Daily Scroll - The Ten Minute Vacation

Gods word, the Bible, teaches us to seek Him while He may be found. Yet we have been beset with so many self induced distractions that our mind is mis-occupied with everything but God. Even faithful church goers, who have our one hour dose of faith on Sunday morning, thinks of Monday almost the entire time. Once, when I was frustrated with my busy life, A friend of mine told me to just sit quietly and reflect on my cup of coffee, how it tastes, what it looks like, how it smells, and nothing else for ten minutes. I tried it and it works. It’s like a ten minute vacation from the concerns of life. My mind was clear. Now take that time, reflect on the Lord Jesus, what He looks like, how His Presence makes you feel, what He has done tor you, and so forth. Your ten minute vacation will bring you the peace and clarity that you need and are looking for. Father will give you the happiness and peace of the Kingdom of God.

“Yes, a person is a fool to store up earthly wealth but not have a rich relationship with God. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and he will give you everything you need. So don’t be afraid, little flock. For it gives your Father great happiness to give you the Kingdom.” (Luke 12:21,31-32)
