My wonderful mentor gave me this idea of a simple way to meditate on God when I was starting to feel overwhelmed this holiday season. She called it “soak time”.
She suggested I find a spot to sit down (a comfy chair or couch) or lie down (bed or couch) alone and listen to one worship song. Just a few minutes. Just one song. To transform my attitude and my focus.
Soaking in His presence.
Soaking in His provision.
Soaking in His All-Sufficiency.
Soaking in His love.
Letting go of our own efforts and resting in Him.
With 3 days left until “the big day”…if you find yourself feeling a little frazzled. Find a quiet room (if that’s possible…may be the bathroom). Turn on a song and soak!
(If you need a song to soak to…check out the new EP from Christa Wells/Nicole Witt called “Image of God”…loaded with songs that will renew your spirit)
love. love. love.
yesterday while driving in the van alone (which never happens) I did this. Listened, sang loudly – my favorite songs of praise.
I love feeling like your reaching out to encourage me even though you’re far away.
Despite not having to travel, I’m finding myself pretty frazzled and emotional this year. Thank you for this reminder to get alone with the Father. Merry Christmas my friend!
