Good morning, everyone, and welcome back to another morning with the Masters

where we devote ourselves to the Lord daily with you.

Good morning, you guys.

We are picking up on day two of our making time to rest devotional in the Bible app.

There's a link to that in the description if you guys want to follow along.

And actually, this one has the scripture embedded all up in the devotional.

The Lord is just going to go ahead and jump on in.

Yes, y'all.

Let's do it.

The devotional is titled Meditate on God's Word.

And it says, many Christ followers don't understand what meditation actually means.

When we meditate on something, we are simply focusing our thoughts to understand what

it means to meditate on God's Word.

Let's read Pastor Rick Warren's description.

He says, surprisingly, if you know how to worry,

you already know how to meditate on the Word of God.

Worry is when you take a negative thought and think on it over and over and over.

When you take a passage of scripture and think on it over and over and over, that's called

meditation.

The Bible mentions meditation over 20 times and calls us to meditate on God's Word.

This is a beneficial practice to incorporate in our daily time with God as it provides

a mental and emotional rest for us as well as spiritual growth.
