Crave God’s Presence

My soul yearns for You [O Lord] in the night, yes, my spirit within me seeks You earnestly; for [only] when Your judgments are in the earth will the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness (uprightness and right standing with God). —Isaiah 26:9

If we are hungry enough, we will get something to eat. And if we can’t eat before we leave home, we will go to a drive-thru at a fast-food restaurant. Or we will call a place that delivers food to bring us something to eat.

If we are hungry enough for God, we will find a way into His presence. We should be so hungry for the presence of God that we absolutely will not go out of our house or tackle any kind of project until we have spent some time with Him.

From the book Starting Your Day Right by Joyce Meyer.

For me, I have to search and reach out to my God each day. If I take Him for granted, think I know what He wants of me, or think I know who He is in today, I may forget to look for Him, in good times and not so good times. God is as He reveals Himself to me in today.
