I want to ask a personal question to everyone here, how often do you just sit and think about the journey you and God have walked? the things you have learned the changes that were made in you and in those around you because of that change?
Something I notice in a lot of Christians is that they don't spend enough time with him, I mean personal and deep time with him getting away from all the chaos of the world and our lives go to that still quite place with him.
For me this time with him is absolutely necessary It's a time of deep communion that washes away all my worries and fears even when I feel horrible from being sick or not sleeping well inside my soul is singing. This also is a time of pondering a time of deep thinking it's in these times God speaks and teaches us in a way that can only be done in that still quire place with him.
I see all the debates and the arguing in cc and I ask myself how often do they spend personal quality time with God? because when one does this often anger and stress and futile debating cannot exist only peace love and this kind of joy that is unique only with him. To ponder the things of God is to be in that still quite place with him it's like listening to a peaceful gentle rain or the soothing sounds of the ocean waves gently making their way to the shore. Pondering the things of God is to think deeply in the spirit and can only truly happen in that state it doesn't even have to be you being alone in your room away from everything, maybe at first that is what it may but this still quite place eventually becomes a state of being even in the chaos of everyday life but one must first learn to be with him in that kind of state often however that may be for me it's going on my walks for others it could be writing or painting or swimming others still it's simply reading his word others it's going jogging.
the point is to remember the pondering
