The reason for Quiet Time with the Lord is to get help. It is not an end in itself. That is, there is nothing beneficial about a
time of devotional focus unless something good comes out of it. Spending time with The Lord is to gain healing,
encouragement, assurance, in order that we can more effectively contribute to
those around us and our world.
We are partners with God in building a better creation. That is our life agenda. We learn that soon
after finding our places as Followers of Jesus.
We learn that believing in the Lord Jesus assures us of life with Him in
this life and the life to come. But
there is a lot more to this new life we have been given. The new life is, in Jesus words “your kingdom
come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” That is what life is about. It is making the
earth a place of greater goodness, beauty, justice and worthwhileness. Each of us is a partner with Jesus in this
wonderful project.
