Here are things I do/used to do/suggested others try:
1. Get up fifteen minutes early and spend it with God - in prayer/Bible/both.
2. Keep a devotional book or a Bible by the toilet. WHen you go in there, you can read it.
3. Keep cue cards in your pocket/purse/briefcase. Read them throughout the day, when you get a chance. THis is a great way to memorize Scripture.
4. Play praise music at home and in the car.
5. Put your little one down for a nap in the afternoon, even for fifteen minutes, then read your Bible.
6. Read stories about Jesus or stories in the Bible with your little ones.
7. Become part of a caregroup, and go!
8. Turn on a cartoon for your little one, then read your BIble while they watch.
9. Pray as you clean or cook.
10. Spending time with your spouse? Pray together or/and do devotionals together.
11. Have Jesus time in the evenings as a family, you only need fifteen minutes to make it happen.
12. Pray before meals.
13. Talk to God in the car, as you jog...
14. On your lunch break, read your Bible.

Do you have any ideas? Share them with us. We would love to hear from you! How do you increase your Jesus time?

Dearest Father, I look up to the heavens far above me and am struck at the awe. You who created all these, created me and all mankind. You care what happens to us. Your eyes cry for those who have wandered away or are not in relationship with you or your SOn Jesus. Lord, my eyes tear too. I know that time is short and the devil is on the prowl, seeking whom he can devour. He has an arsenal of tools he uses to deceive your children and every day they fall for it. Lord, please forgive them. Please heal them. Please deliver them from the hell they are in. Bring them back to you. All of them.... The time is now, right now....

It is time for a journey to begin. A journey down the road to Damascus. A journey with no baggage. A journey where the old life has to be left behind. A journey you take alone, but not alone. A journey with Jesus. A journey where the person meets new friends, who can pray for them and witness tothem and speak to there needs. A joureny with friends who care, friends who can encourage one. A journey where spirtual milk is partaken and daily mannah provided. A journey with a craving for the portion that is the Word of God. A journey where growth is possible. A journey where weeding occurs to rid the person of sins and temptations and cravings not of you. A journey where the soul experiences addiction to Jesus. A journey where new habits are formed. A journey with new items on the agenda... the activiities include bible reading, meditation, soul building, church attendance and fellowship. A journey where new opportunities are offered and old ones are removed from the person in question. A journey where soil is fertile and ready for planting. A journey where seeds are planted and nourished by the hand of God himself and pruned when required. A journey where the light is bright, and darkness does not reside. A journey where no shadows exist, nothing can be hidden or covered. A journey where love is experienced in a life changing way. A journey where transformations occur, life changing transformations. A journey where wisdom starts, wisdom about God and Jesus. A journey where eternal consequences are the result. A journey where the SPirit is available in endless qunatities. A journey where the possibilities are endless and impossibilities end. A journey where life starts. A journey which involves death to self and life in Jesus. This is our prayer for your sons and daughters Papa God. Come Lord Jesus! Let the fun begin!
In your name we pray in great urgency Jesus. AMen.
