I appreciate the words in today's devotional about the definition of "holy" - as being set apart for sacred use of being totally Present with my Lord. I began thinking about times during the day that I truly set aside for that sacred use. I
will admit that those times for me are not what they should. It was an
"Aha!" moment when I realized that I am only depriving myself of the
blessings that God is waiting to give to me when I don't spend that
sacred time with Him.
Powerful words from Sarah Young
were that this is how we are "transformed" or re-created to be like our
Lord intends for us to be. She also writes about attaining God's Peace
through setting aside time for worship and communion with our Lord. Can
there be anything more important in life than to be like God wants us to
be and to be filled with His Peace? This beautiful hymn has been a good reminder for me as I pray it will be for you about the importance of spending that time "to be holy" with our Lord: "Take Time to Be Holy."
What do you do to
ensure that you TAKE the time to be holy - even when days are so hectic
that it seems there isn't time for one more thing?
