There is a tendency within Christianity to “overwork” our faith during times of spiritual dryness.

“Be still and know that I am God.” (Psalm 46:10)

What are your ropes that lead you back to God in the midst of a spiritual storm?

The Daily Office Repeatedly setting aside small units of time to be WITH God is key to an experience of His presence with us the rest of the day. The daily office then consists of specific blocks of time set aside during the day to experience God’s work in one’s life.

The Daily Office STOP BE STILL SILENCE SCRIPTURE SHARE

Might we all find ways to regularly be with God, so that we know His presence with us more clearly when times of trouble come our way. Might your times with God drive you into such deep relationship with Him that it will literally change how you approach the world around you. Might we become a people of emotional and spiritual health, ready to help others who find themselves in the midst of a spiritual storm.
