It saddens Me that so many people are content to just let life pass
them by. They may be busy keeping up or trying to get ahead, or they may
fill every spare moment with relaxing activities, but where is all that
busy activity taking them? When do they really live?
The secret to getting the most out of life is living close to Me and remaining faithful to My teaching.1
I don’t mean that you should hide away and give yourself solely to
quiet reflection and study, but rather that when you include Me in your
daily activities and look to My Word for guidance,2 I can
help life take on new meaning and depth. You will not only be much
happier and feel more fulfilled, but you will brighten the lives of
those around you as you reflect My love.It starts by making a habit of taking a few quiet minutes at the start of every day for prayer and time with Me.3 Then take what I have taught you in the “classroom” and apply it throughout the day. Whether you're on the job, running errands, or relaxing with family and friends, I can make you a greater blessing to others and bless you in the process. You’ll find life will be richer and more meaningful as you look to Me.
—Jesus
