"When hard pressed, I cried to the Lord; He brought me into a spacious place." -Psalm 118:5 (NIV)
I recently saw a quote that said, "Nature is cheaper than therapy." There are times when life can be overwhelming and we may feel a need to get away or have some space. When life gets complicated, one of the things I like to do is take a walk in nature and talk to God there. We can feel that we are being squeezed into a schedule or into a mold that isn't our normal comfort zone, we can call on God!
God is with us and can guide us. While God is ready to lead us, we have to be ready to have faith and trust in His will for our lives. As we trust in and follow God, He will lead us into a "spacious place." That place may be a physical spaciousness, such as a walk in nature, or it may be a spaciousness in our hearts and minds that allow us to experience God's presence and learn to trust in Him. When God leads us into spaciousness, we can communicate with Him through prayer and focus on Him and His will for our lives.
Ask God to lead you into His spaciousness and spend time with Him!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank Your for leading me to spacious places when life is overwhelming. Please continue to guide me in Your will. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
