WHY DO WE HANG OUT WITH JESUS?
Jesus loves you so much and wants to have a strong relationship with you. We spend time with Jesus because it’s how we build that strong relationship with Him. Spending time with Jesus helps us to understand Him better, and it’s a good opportunity to pause from the craziness and business of life for a few minutes and focus on Him. Our time with Him changes us, encourages us, builds us up, teaches us, and helps us get through some of life’s harder moments.
WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE TO HANG OUT WITH JESUS
Hanging out with Jesus can look like a lot of different things! It might look like setting aside some intentional time to read the Bible and pray, or it might mean taking a couple of minutes throughout your day to pause and focus on Him. Here’s a couple of suggestions of how you can spend time with Him this week:
-Go on a run and listen to worship music or pray while you run.
-Pray when you wake up or go to bed.
-Set aside a few minutes at some point in the day to read your
Bible, pray, and journal some of your thoughts down.
-Spend time pausing and thinking about a verse – what does this
verse mean to you, what does it say about you or about God.
-Listen to a worship song on the way to school.
-Pray on your way to your next class.
-Pause in the morning to make a list of things that you’re thankful
for, and then thank Jesus for each of those things.
