Nothing fancy today, folks, just thought I’d share a little acronym I’ve come up with. I am not the most disciplined or organized person in the world, but I’m getting better. S.T.A.Y. simply stands for
Spend Time Alone with Yahweh
I use it to remind myself just how important it is to spend that time alone with the Maker and Savior every day. It’s on my little schedule I’ve made up for myself under a certain block of time.
It’s amazing how easy it is to forget or to think I can handle even one day or hour or minute or second by myself. I need Him moment by moment. Hope you make some time in your daily routine to S.T.A.Y.
You will guard him and keep him in perfect and constant peace whose mind [both its inclination and its character] is stayed on You, because he commits himself to You, leans on You, and hopes confidently in You. (Isaiah 26:3, Amplified Bible)

Hi Phil,
Comment by Judy Shaw June 25, 2009 @ 11:54 pmThanks for the reminder of a very simple and vital truth. I really like your acronym, hope you don’t mind sharing
S.T.A.Y. ing is the secret of success.
Blessings,
Judy
You remind me of a thought the Lord gave some years back:
I cannot move without Him knowing.
Prayer is for intimacy with Jesus so much that it could be said,
I cannot move without knowing Him.
Love,
