Towards the Cross - Week Three
 








Week 3 (Mar 7 – 13)  “Drawing Near: To God, To Others”
 
“Come near to God and he will come near to you.” ~ James 4:8
 
“Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.” ~ I Thessalonians 5:11

I often use a prayer book to help me start the day off in prayer. It takes my groggy, morning focus off of me and my to-do list, and centres me on God. One of the lines I love in these morning prayers is, “keep me awake and available to you and to each one that will cross my path.” Being alert and present to God is a cultivated habit. Thankfully our coming near to God is not the end of the story… he reciprocates… he responds… he moves toward us.
 
However, it doesn’t stop at this moving together. It begins on the inside, but finds expression on the outside. Being awake to God, will mean being available to those who you brush shoulders with. This week, as you are with God throughout your days, ask him “whom would you have me be available to?” The task is to then respond!
