Give HIM Time!
"This is my comfort in my affliction,
for Your word has given me life."
Psalm 119: 50
NFL player, Ben Watson and wife, Kirsten, are
followers of Jesus, and their house is full! They
have seven children, including a set of twins.
In 2018, Kirsten experienced two miscarriages in
four months. It marked a lonely and difficult time
for her. Kirsten found strength in time with the Lord.
“Get into the Word and understand that God sees you as
His daughter,” she told the Christian Post. “Our prayer is
not that we get what we want, but that our desires match
up with God’s desires for our life.”
Kirsten is a homeschooling mother. Imagine what her day
looks like. Yet she doesn’t miss her time with the Lord in
daily Bible study and prayer. She knows “how the children
treat each other, how they see themselves. All of that is
derived out of where I am in my own walk with the Lord.”
Everyone is too busy nowadays. But that is just when
we most need to carve out time for God who keeps
us sane and saintly. Don’t neglect HIM.
"We can be tired, weary and emotionally distraught, but
after spending time alone with God, we find that He
injects into our bodies energy, power, and strength."
