But as for me, the nearness of God is my good.
Want more peace and joy? This simple verse is a wonderful reminder that we don’t need more money, a bigger house, more electronics, more stuff, or even more friends. What we do need is more of God.
How do we get more of God? We spend time with him, of course. There are many different ways to do that.
Read/study the Bible.
Spend time talking with him (prayer).
Spend time singing praise songs and don’t forget those wonderful old hymns as well.
Take a walk in nature and appreciate what God has given us.
These are just a few of the ways we can spend more time with him. The more time we spend with him , the nearer he will be.
We may actually be angry at God because we aren’t getting what we want. The things of this world will not bring joy or peace, only God can do that.
So what’s your favorite way to spend time with God?
POWER UP WITH GOD
