— Jeremiah 33:3
Modern man has lost the perspective of eternity. To distract himself from the gaping jaws of death, he engages in ceaseless activity and amusement. The practice of being still in God's presence is almost a lost art, yet it is this very stillness that enables you to experience his eternal love. You need the certainty of his loving presence in order to weather the storms of life. During times of severe testing, even the best theology can fail you if it isn't accompanied by experiential knowledge of him. The ultimate protection against sinking during life's storms is devoting time to develop your friendship with God.
