Category: Quiet Time


My Quiet Time is a collection of my time spent with Abba God.

It is inspired by a beautiful story in the Gospel of Luke 24:13-36. It is the story of Road to Emmaus. 2 disciples, Cleo and his companion, are walking away from Jerusalem, discouraged after Jesus’ death. The resurrected Jesus walked with them and explained the scriptures to them.

The Bible said that Jesus kept them from recognizing Him. Why?

Because it is more important for them to discover and see Jesus in the Scriptures themselves.

This is a powerful revelation for me. Just like Cleopas and his companion, I might not always have a clear understanding when I study the Bible. It may even be dry and boring. But Jesus is always there, eager to teach me, just like He was with the 2 disciples

When the “aha!” moments of revelations come, they are amazing. When I find a nugget of truth myself, it fills me with warmth, joy, and wellbeing. It is like the Bible says in Proverbs 4:20-22.

My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. 22 For they [are] life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.

Therefore, I should not give up my quiet time but press on. Even if the Bible does not make sense yet. Jesus will definitely draw near and explain it to me, bringing joy, peace and health to me.
