Intentional Encounters

When I was a child, television was black and white. There were six channels. At the end of the broadcast day, at 12:00 a.m., you saw the American Flag and heard the National Anthem. Shortly after that, the screen turned to static. Broadcasting didn’t resume until 6:00 a.m., yet now we have programming 24 hours a day seven days a week. Hundreds of channels and streaming content is available online to individuals of all ages. We have to make a conscious decision to turn off electronic devices and tune in to God’s Word. Jesus took time to find a quiet place to commune with His Father. By drawing near to God, He will come near to us. May we seek him early each day before our busy day begins.
