Day Seven
Set aside one hour to look back over the last week. Turn your phone off to make sure you are distraction-free.
Get in a comfortable posture.
Let’s starting by
BREATHING
Take three deep breaths and begin to settle your soul.
When you are ready,
INVITE GOD INTO THIS MOMENT
Ask God to eliminate the noise and to speak to your body, mind, and soul.
LOOK BACK
Take 20 minutes to look back over the last week of your journal. As you read, contemplate all the things God has spoken to you.
What comes to the surface?
Was there a theme that emerged?
What was it like to listen for God’s voice this week?
ASK GOD A FEW QUESTIONS
God, what would it look like to create space to listen to your voice daily?
God, what would my life look like if I were intimately connected to you?
God, what is the one thing that you want me to implement in my spiritual rhythm?
LISTEN
Embrace the silence and fight the urge to speak. Be in the presence of God and listen for his voice.
PUT IT ALL TOGETHER
Write a few sentences about what God is asking you to do for your personal spiritual rhythm. This could be one new step forward or an entire overhaul to how you are connecting with God. If you need help, use the series of statements below.
One quick word of encouragement - spiritual growth is a journey over a lifetime.
The steps you take forward today will be different than the ones you take tomorrow. Today, do your best to limit your intentions to less than three actions.
Consider these statements as you approach your spiritual rhythm
