The Upper Room 2 December 2021 Daily Devotional Message
I was listening to some music on my portable CD player one day when suddenly the music sounded distorted and muffled. It was all jumbled, and it hardly sounded like music at all. I soon realized that the batteries were low, so I replaced them. Then the music was restored to its original clarity and beauty.
How like our walk with God! We can become so focused on how we are serving God that sometimes we do not pay attention to our spiritual health and fail to realize when our spiritual batteries run low. We think we can keep going and still hear God just as clearly. We forget that we need to spend regular time with God in prayer and worship to recharge our spirits so that we can better understand what God is saying to us. When we spend time with God, we can remain fully charged and have enough energy to complete the work God has for us to do.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Dear God, help us always to make time for you so that we can keep our spirits fully alive and ready to respond to your call. Amen.
