My visit to God?

This blog is all about the times God "visits" me.  In daily life, in study/prayer time, whenever and wherever those special visits occur, it's all about recognizing and celebrating them.   And seeing and trusting in God's faithfulness.

But listening to Joyce M. the other day, something occurred to me.  She was talking about taking God into all our day to day life stuff.  So I thought to myself (or more likely the Holy Spirit just put a little seed into my brain), 2 things:  one, how about me visiting with God, and two, how about inviting Him into everything happening in my day, even the mundane and commonplace.

Here's what I mean.  I head off into the grocery store.  Well instead of just plunging ahead, checking off the list as I go through the store, why not go to God (and here is where I visit with Him), and ask Him to walk with me (and now here is me asking for a "God visit") through this routine everyday task?    See what I am saying?

Perhaps He will lead me to the better prices, bigger bargains, or will show me someone that may need help or encouragement, or even to share the Gospel with. Maybe He'll  help me get through the store faster, thus redeeming my time. Whatever happens, I know that with Jesus in it, it has to be better !  And I absolutely love this idea.

Thank You Lord for this amazingly profound yet simple idea.  Imagine, inviting You into every aspect of my day.  Help me to do just that.  Help us all to do just that.  And then let's watch and see what happens!!
