Why Should we be Intentional about Quiet Space?

1 Girl Nation/Making A Difference Extravaganza!           Mother and Daughter Event.  Details below

John 16:14
"He will bring glory to Me by taking from what is mine and making it known to you." 
How do you fill YOUR quiet moments?   I'm not talking about your quiet time. This is separate.  What I'm talking about is... While you're standing in line or driving down the road or sitting at a stop light or going about your activities at home...
  • Do you take out your iPhone to check email or to call someone?
  • Do you listen to the radio nonstop while driving around town?
  • Do you keep the TV on as background noise?
Today, the most common way God speaks to His people is through the Holy Spirit.  "He will bring glory to Me by taking from what is mine and making it known to you."    The Holy Spirit will share what Jesus and God are thinking toward the plan He has for our lives.   He will make known to us profound things... but we must be willing to listen.   Not only in our quiet time, but in our everyday life.  

So in lieu of filling my quiet space with radio, TV, or any other unnecessary noise, I'll often be intentional about being quiet.  It's not something that happens all the time, but I can testify to awesome God driven thoughts that are to cool to be my thoughts.  For example, I've received:
  • Profound thoughts and ideas for ministry.  Ideas that turned into a luncheon and a women's conference and prayer journal.
  • Guidance to prayer requests or others issues going on in my life..  
  • Thoughts about other people I'm to pray for or connect with.
  • Deep, deep down peace despite having a hectic schedule.  
Guard your quiet space.  God may have something profound He wants to share with you...

This event is happening, because the organizer, Caroline Simas, Founder of Multiple Blessings, was intentional with her quiet space and was listening!   Caroline is a friend of mine.  God is using her art to reach many with the hope of Jesus.  But for now, the Lord has her planning an awesome event for Mothers and their Daughters.  So honored to be a part of this event!  Very special.  You will not want to miss.
