A Quiet Time with Jesus [04/13/2025]

A Quiet Time with Jesus

Devotional Meditation Guide

 

I rest my hands on the open Bible laid before me

and whisper a prayer:

“Holy Spirit, help me to know

the heart of Jesus within these sacred words.”

 

I turn to the passage for the day,

reading slowly, softly—

as if Jesus Himself is speaking to me.

 

Each word, each phrase,

I read with care, letting it settle into my soul.

I pause to reflect, allowing the scene to unfold in my imagination.

 

When a word or sentence stirs my heart, I stop.

I close my eyes and meditate on it,

lingering there—

until I begin to sense the heartbeat of Jesus behind the words.

 

I let the Word lead me into prayer,

gently rephrasing it in the language of my own heart.

 

I write down what I’ve come to see of God—

His character, His nearness, His will for my life.

And once more, I end in prayer,

offering it all back to Him.

 

Then, from the grace I’ve received,

 

I share a little of it with those around me.
