„Wait, this moment is too sweet, would you please stay here with me and love on me a little longer. I hear you say: you don’t have to do a thing, just simply be with me and let those things go `cause they can wait another minute“
How I love this song. The lyrics are so strong and it tells you a wonderful love story. I heard it a hundred times.
Listen the whole song and let the lyrics touch your heart.
Isn’t it true that so many different things keep us from spending a little time with God. We have to work, there is so much going on, so much we need to do. So many little things distract us from spending some time with him.
I love how humorously our God is. Recently he had some really clever ways to spend time with me. If you know me, then you can tell that I love watching series like Private Practice, Castle and stuff like that. It is my little paradise when I can watch an episode before going to bed. I have to admit that I also play Candy Crush while driving home from work. This is a time where I could just seek God and thank him for another day and so on. But I don’t. I rather play another level on Candy Crush. How stupid!
So a few days ago while traveling home after work I was about playing this stupid game. A moment before I was starting it a thought came into my mind: What if I would pray now instead? Well, I will, I thought, after a game session. (I am not even a gamer, but I don’t know about this game) So you can imagine me taking the phone, opening the app. Do you want to know what happened? It didn’t work. The app literally broke down. And I was like: Haha God, good move! I could imagine him there, popcorn in his hands, laughing at me. This would normally be the part where I would get angry and opening youtube instead. But this time I heard „the call“. And instead of being angry I felt honored.
God wants to spend time with me. I’ll repeat that for you: HE wants to spend time with you. What an honor that THE creator wants to be a part of your life. Oh and how he loves the time he has with you.
So a few days ago I started to lay my every days in the hands of Jesus. So every morning before I go to work I now pray and thank God for a new day. I ask him to be with me. I ask for strength and wisdom while working. And I can tell you guys that THIS makes a huge difference. I highly encourage you to do the same. Just thank him for another day and pray that you may act so you honor his holy name. Start your day with God! He is the reason why you woke up this morning.
I got up early one morning and rushed right into the day. I had so much to accomplish, that I didn’t have
time to pray.
Problems just tumbled about me and heavier came each task. Why doesn’t God help me? I wondered. He answered, You didn’t ask.

So simply be with him and let those things go, they can wait another minute just stay a little longer! Don’t forget that he who gives you time also wants to spend it with you! You are his beloved.
Sincerely, Vanessa
