I get closer to God by praying to him, singing to him,reading my bible and thanking him for all he has done in my life. I would now like to spend more time with him by thoroughly reading my bible and studing the word clearly.
Getting close to God is easy. All you have to do is want to spend time with Him just like you would your best friend or your spouse. God loves your time with Him and will bless you amazingly for spending that time with him. It took me many years to make the “sacrifice” of spending time with Him. When I finally made the commitment I realized it was not a sacrifice at all. I love spending time with God. It makes my day go smoother, makes me think clearer, and makes me more patient with my children and others around me.
I spend time with God every evening. (I am not a morning person, but I hear that is better. I start with music and worshiping God, then I thank Him for all He has done. I spend time asking God for my needs and then I actually spend QUIET time with Him so that he can actually talk to me! ( I have been told a lot that when you are talking to me, you can’t get a word in edgewise LOL) So I give God time to talk to me.
Just spending quality non-multitasking time with Him everyday and reading His word is all it takes to get closer to God.
It took me about a month to get into the routine. Now that I do this on a daily basis, I am convinced that I am much more productive when I spend time with God.
I used a couple of different resources that helped me out a lot. Rev. Jeremy Mahurin’s book, The Secret Place, tells you not only WHY, but gives you step-by-step instructions on HOW. He also has a weekly devotional targeted specifically to getting close to God and staying that way. You can find all these resources at http://www.drawingcloser.org .
most times I dont feel worthy…why would God love “me”….? After being raped (a virgin) I got promiscuous and had an abortion…I have stayed on the straight road since then…i feel as if nothing I do will ever make me be forgiven.. yet I Long to go back to the very close relationshiop I always had with God. Jesus must be really tired of me. But I dont give up.. I still pray everyday and read the word…maybe one day?
no matter what.. i love the Lord with all my heart and soul.
