Me: Howdy Prodigal!
Prodigal: How are you?
Me: I am good, I saw you alone and was checking on you.
Prodigal: I am just spending some time alone with God.
Me: I can share about some good things to focus on with your time alone with God.
This is from Joy in Christ’s Presence by Charles Spurgeon
Meditate upon the gracious acts that procured such blessings for you. Consider the labors that your Lord endured for you and the sufferings by which He purchased the mercies that He bestows. What human tongue can describe the unutterable misery of His heart or tell so much as one of the agonies that crowded upon His soul? How much less can we comprehend the vast total of Christ’s sufferings! But all his sorrows were necessary for your benefit, and without them not one of your innumerable mercies could have been bestowed.
Psalm 90:17
Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us, and establish the work of our hands upon us; yes, establish the work of our hands!
