Our daily devotion
We put aside time for the spiritual exercise of prayer and Bible study. This devotion requires diligence. Very often, as we sat down to get a nice little routine going, only to have it interrupted, shortened or terminated by any number of crisis moments, attentions or demands of those close to us. These interruptions become very easy for us to come to the conclusion that we might as well just quit even trying to seek and take time for this area in our lives. We must not quit – diligence in this area is always for our benefit and the benefit of those around us. Such rewards should encourage us never to quit seeking and taking time for spiritual exercise.
Luke 18:1
Jesus told them a story showing that it was necessary for them to pray consistently and never quit.
Psalm 119:105
Your words are a flashlight to light the path ahead of me, and keep me from stumbling.
