#158: Why You Can’t Afford to Skip Your Quiet Time Today

June 28, 2024

Have you found yourself “rescheduling” your quiet time to “tomorrow” so you can deal with more “pressing” needs instead? How many times does that need to happen before you start to see a negative shift in your mood, energy, attitude or productivity?

The Daily Quiet Time. It’s like a foundational habit in the life of a born again Christian. Until it isn’t. For many of us, life just starts to get in the way: a new job with an earlier starting time, a baby or a toddler who makes the morning less of a routine and more of a “spin the wheel” surprise, or maybe even a health situation that’s requiring a bit more sleep in the AM. But is our daily connection with God really a negotiable? Will we wind up with anything in that deal if we give it up, day after day?

On this episode of the Positioned to Prosper podcast, I’m sharing the reason why you cannot afford to miss your daily quiet time. And I’ve got science to back it up, Sis. I’m also showing you how to plan a simple yet effective 30-minute quiet time you can do each and every day, even if you need to shrink those 30 minutes down to 15. Sound good? Alright, then I want you to Grab your Bible, your journal and a pen, and . . . Let’s Go!
