Where has the Lord met you? Where did the Lord give you a unique encounter of His presence? Don’t minimize these spaces. Erect an altar there of remembrance, worship, and surrender. For it is here the Lord pursued you, and here you surrendered afresh to Him.

Every follower of Christ has seasons where they drift from God. The allurement of the world, the weakness of our flesh, and the enemy's attack regularly pull us. We are not instantly delivered from a hostile world when we come to Christ in faith and the matter of nearness to God must be cultivated.
