“Now acquaint yourself with God, and be at peace; Thereby good will come to you.”
~ Job 22:21
Job is encouraged here in our verse to get to know the God that he serves. Job was frustrated, confused, and anxious about his life, in part, because he didn’t understand how the Lord was using his circumstances to 1. better him and 2. bring glory to God. Getting to know God through Scripture, prayer and worship helps us to better understand and appreciate what the Lord is doing in our life and how He is even using the difficult circumstances we face for our good. Therefore, it is vitally important we make acquainting ourselves with God a priority in our life. Because when we do, goodness and peace is sure to follow.

Prayer Life Pause: Heavenly Father, show Yourself to me anew and afresh that I might better becoming acquainted with You – my true source of all goodness and peace. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Listening to the radio this morning, they asked the question, “What do you need to live your best life?” The answer is so so simple for me. Communion with God. He is the only One who can bring us true peace and happiness, even in the midst of our daily troubles here on earth. Though at times life is very trying, it’s God I have to thank for my best life.
