Jesus said, " Pray and you will receive that your joy may be full."
John 16:24

Settle yourself down when all has been done in the day which and relate to Me. Make this a priority : if you are tired offer your tiredness, then it will not be a hindrance. How much greater profit in re-creation you will find this than relaxing into a television programme you will experience as you practise it. Begin with short periods and work at bringing the whole of your being - mind, body and spirit - into focus. If you wish have paper and pencil at hand and use them for two purposes , one to note down and release from your mind items of action which suddenly possess your attention, and - of greater import - to itemise and to bring to your attention those people and these matters which Our Holy Spirit wishes to pray in and through you. This process will bring both pain and joy - pain because it will be a small part of the redemptive process of the world, and joy because you are being so used and you will experience the en-joying within the deepest part of your being of Our Holy and life-giving Spirit. Be strong in these things. Spurn drift and laissez-faire. Each day must have its quota of work and activity. But that day is incomplete and impoverished which does not contain a willed and dedicated approach to the Father through Our Holy Spirit in the power of my Presence.
