Show Notes

Do you have a constant contact list on your phone? Mine includes my family and some close friends. I’m constantly texting, calling, or emailing these people with my schedule updates, plans, and schoolwork questions. We are in touch all day with the minutiae of pick-up times, homework assignments, and random things like funny videos.My constant contact list is my inner circle. They know my whereabouts, my habits, and my humor and I know theirs. My constant contact list brings me a sense of security. We don’t necessarily have long talks or big adventures every day, but the short, frequent texts and calls make me feel included and cared for.I pray in text message format too. I pray constantly,about everything,every day.When I’m worried, I let Jesus know.When I see something beautiful, I thank Jesus.When I’m hoping for something, I ask Jesus for it.These prayers are not formal or long or even out loud,but they are constant and help me connect with Christ.He and I know that the lines of communication are always open. Whenever I’m talking, He’s listening.And by conditioning my thoughts to prayer,It has gotten easier for me to hear His Word.My ongoing dialogue with Christ opens my heart to His guidance, And I know I am never alone. Kelly Bakshi If you’ve put your trust in Jesus, you can be in constant contact with God, who loves you more than you know. Jesus has made this possible through dying on the cross and rising from the dead (Mark 15:37-39; Hebrews 4:14-16). What would you like to talk to God about? Maybe you have some anxieties or fears on your mind? Maybe something made you smile recently? Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 (NIV)
