Day 16: Prioritize Jesus in your CAR...

How many of you spend some time in your vehicles every day? Do you find your mind racing through what you have to do for the day? Places to be, things to do, deadlines to meet, lunch meetings, grocery shopping, kids to pickup, and of course soccer practice. The things of life. Its inevitable that each of us in this modern world will spend anywhere from 10 minutes to 1 hour a day or more in a car (imagine the days of horses... takes commuting to a whole new level doesn't it?)

How do you use your time in your car every day? For some its a detox from the stresses of kids, work, school, life. A time to just be still, or to think and dream about the future. The good news is, you are stationary, you are not 'going' anywhere while driving in your car. I mean you are going somewhere but you are not leaving your seat buckled in until you arrive at your destination right? Its a perfect time to commune with Jesus, pray, talk to the Father. A great way to simply engage with the Creator of the universe. He wants to speak to you and help you, extend His love through you for the day. He desires that you would be filled during your morning commute, no matter how short or long that is. Would you prioritize him during this time?

Prioritize Jesus in your car by:

1. Acknowledging His presence with you.
2. Thanking Him for the day, that His mercies are new every morning.
3. Confessing your need for Him today.
4. Repenting of any sin that would hinder you.
5. Talk out loud to Him, sing to Him.

In all of our mundane activities and tasks throughout the day, Jesus wants to be Lord of those activities, thoughts, actions, tasks, and work. Allow Him to grace you with His presence, His voice, His affirmation, and His goodness over your life. Be blessed as you prioritize Jesus in your life.
