A little wit, a little struggle, a lot of Jesus

When Quiet Time Ends

By Tresta Payne on Mar 06, 2014 06:17 am

There may be a little too much love in my heart for the early morning hours, a cup of coffee, and my Quiet Time.

Sacred hour of the day – it even gets capital letters.

If any good thing can replace the best thing –  the love of God and love for others – Quiet Time might be it. It might be the idol that I bow before and cry over and miss when it’s taken over by early-rising children or sickness or just plain weariness.

What I need is to take quiet into the day with me and live like the temple of the Spirit that I am – a place where Jesus dwells, not visits.

I’m over at One Fun Mom today, confessing my love for Quiet Time and some ways to take it with me throughout the day. You’re invited to join us and read the post here.
