Presence Prayers: Communicate with God

Let's say the SuperTruth together: I will spend time with Jesus.

Martha chose to be busy with preparing a meal for important guests, while Mary recognized that the preparations could wait.

 Each day, even when we don’t realize it, we make a choice to spend time with Jesus or not. Will we choose to include Him in our busy schedule? Are we willing to drop some things or reschedule them? When the Holy Spirit speaks to our hearts, will we hear Him? Or, are we too busy?

Let’s close our eyes and spend time with Jesus right now. First, let’s thank God that He wants to spend time with us – His children. Allow children time to pray silently or out loud if desired.

Now, let’s thank Jesus for dying on the cross to pay the price for our sins, so that we may enter into God’s presence and have a relationship with Him and God the Father. Allow time to pray.

Last, I invite anyone who would like to make a commitment to spend time with Jesus each day to say the SuperTruth out loud. “I will spend time with Jesus” 

Close in prayer: Dear Lord Jesus, please remind us each day to spend time with You. What we receive from You is the most important thing in life and can never be taken away from us. In Your name we pray, Amen.
