A DATE WITH GOD <3!!!

After weeks of working hard, running around doing good works for God and others, the Lord spoke to my heart about how much more He desires for me to spend quality time with Him alone, simply listening to Him or be beside Him than being so busy serving Him.. AWWW that hurt deep within my heart, because is so easy to get cough up serving God, finding things to do for Him that we forget that what He desires the most is to be with us, to grow an intimate relationship with Him. Oh but God’s grace and love is so beautiful that He explain that He is pleased with me for He sees what I do is for Him BUT that even if I don’t do one more thing for Him, His love for me will never change, His unconditional love will never change because His love is not a human love with limitation and conditions.. WOW that alone melt my heart <3!!! I was so convicted in a great way, this doesn’t mean that I shouldn’t do anything to please Him or to honor Him this only means that I need to make a priority to spend quality time alone with Him, to know Him more and grow closer to Him. And that’s the place where I will be renewed, refreshed to keep giving my best.

He speaks deep withing my heart with His gorgeous creation!!!!

Oh man, I was so occupied doing things for His kingdom that would forget to spend quality time with my King, just in silence with Him. I do have quiet times with the Lord, I talk to Him through all my day every day, I have times of intercession and worship several times per week, but specially at this season of my life that I am DTS staff, preparing for Outreach and directing the ministry “Unfading Beauty”, since I love so much what I am doing and know I am doing it for God, I often forget the need to relax and spend QUALITY time with GOD, the one I am serving. I’ve been doing this intentionally now and I was blessed with the day of Silence and Solitude for 6 hours this past Friday. OH words can’t describe what a wonderful blessing this was to my soul. 6 hours where not enough, It was a DATE with GOD… and He just showered me with His presence and reminded me how much He loves me and how wonderful His plans are for me.
