Sanctuary

When you come home at the end of a terrible day, where do you go?  To the fridge for a little comfort food?  To your XBox where you are more in control?  To pull the cork out of a wine bottle so you can "wine" down? To the Internet where you can find endless forms of escape?  

What is your sanctuary?  Concerned for his disciples, Jesus said, "Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth" (Jn 17:17).  I go to my sanctuary early each morning when I open the pages of the Bible and turn to God in prayer. I believe that the study of God's word has a purifying and peace-producing effect on my heart, mind and soul.  

May I suggest that you create a sanctuary time in God's word daily?  Jus' Say'n.
