A new devotional will drop every Monday!

_{This space is primarily written to encourage my students at Elm Grove Church. God wants a personal relationship with you that extends past our services on Sundays and Wednesdays.}

_{You can read a devotional once a week and continue to reflect on the questions throughout the week. Beyond just reading the devotionals, I’d encourage you to create a space for your mind and heart to be ready to experience God.}

_{Here is what I do when I set time aside for devos (about 10 minutes):}

• _{Get in a quiet space}
• _{Set a timer on your phone for two minutes, close your eyes or just look at the ground and sit still and silently for two minutes.}
• _{When the timer goes off, ask the Lord to speak to you. Often, I pray “give me eyes to see your truths, ears to hear your truths, and prepare my heart to accept your truths. In Jesus’ name, amen.”}
• _{Read the devo.}
• _{Journal the questions down or spend the next 5-minutes thinking about one specific question that relates to you.}
