From James 4:8-10: “Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hears, you double-minded. Lament and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned into mourning and your joy into dejection. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will exalt you.”

Walking in the quiet, pre-dawn darkness
Inviting someone to share its calmness
Appreciating the morning’s starkness
Jesus joins these moments of peacefulness
Sharing these special times, feeling so blessed
Listening to Savior Jesus, what joy!
Feeling renewed, with mercy invested
God’s Son gathers peace, ready to deploy
Witnessing this time, brings purpose to life
Forgiving light, leading this faithful walk
Sensing Christ’s harmony, removing all strife
His eternal love, conveying faithful talk
God shapes His flock as a skillful potter
Drawing closer to our Holy Father

It’s so beautiful spending time in the presence of Jesus…..and I love the scripture you used with it, especially the first part; “Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.” I claim this promise.
