"May God Himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
The One who calls you is faithful and He will do it." 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24
After going over new material, the teacher asked to see a student... in private. Classroom instruction is good. But at times, a word in private is needed. Whether for extra instruction or needed clarification, discipline or correction of a behavior, or even a word of praise, some things need to be relayed privately. Wouldn't you agree that sometimes a little one-on-one is needed to accomplish your goal as a teacher?
I believe God feels the same way with us. As wonderful as corporate worship, Bible study classes, and prayer groups are, do you think it's enough? God speaks to us and moves us in group situations, but He also desires to speak to us One-on-one.
This is especially true in times of chaos, frustration and confusion. Make time for just you and Him... there are things He longs to say to you, His precious, beloved Child, to calm your weary soul. Listen, He's calling. Can He have a private Word with you now?
we are loved and chosen by God,
may we live, love and do like we believe it,
veneal
