Since moving out here, God has been teaching me a lot. One of the things He has really placed on my heart is my prayer life. I am beginning to see that at home I took so much advantage of opportunity for quiet time or prayer time that I never actually did it out of desperation. Desperation. That seems like a strange word coming from someone kickin' it on Maui but when God wants your attention to really grow you, it doesn't matter where you are in the world. God calls us to live uncomfortable lives and in those moments, the ones where you have no where else to go (like you're on an island or something..), that's when God can really move.
I encourage you to give yourself time to just be with the Lord. Don't get to the end of your life and realize that you have wasted every moment of opportunity to be with Him. He is waiting for you.
"So the Lord must wait for you to come to him so he can show you his love and compassion. For the Lord is a faithful God. Blessed are those who wait for his help."
Isaiah 30:18
