Good day, Chosen Vessels! My name is Maria E. White, and I am your host of the Chosen Vessels Pray Podcast with our new charge to "Take the Plunge, PRAY: Prayer Break," which is a "meditative moment," which we will do weekly. I invite you to take a daily prayer break. Take time to pause. Reflect. Ask. Yield and spend time with God.

In a world filled with distractions, it is important to take the time to turn inward, reflect, and commune with the Lord. This is especially true for Christians, who are called to dedicate their lives to Him, Abba Father who art in heaven. This prayer break allows us to discuss the importance of spending time with God, which is an important topic for us to consider. Our allotted time with God helps us draw closer to Him and receive direction and instruction for our lives.

As we take time out of our day to “Take the Plunge, PRAY.” We pause during this meditative moment to give thanks and praise the Lord. We reflect on His goodness as the day winds down. As you “Take the Plunge, PRAY” challenge, take a moment to pause and focus on your breathing. Put your worries to rest and give thanks to God for, as the saying goes, "just for Him being a good, good Father." For this meditative moment, I ask you to join me for a time to pause, reflect, and breathe so that your body, mind, and spirit can find rest. Your soul will be at peace during this meditative moment as we pause, breathe, and PRAY God’s Word and ask God to help us zero in on what He requires of us to do right now. In this episode titled Meditate and Be Planted!, we will spend some time reflecting on God's Word through the New King James Version’s Psalm 1. We will use God's Word to help us through life's experiences one chat or episode at a time during our time together.

This dedication to devote time to God enables the godly to live a blessed life. To develop a relationship with God, and walk with Him firmly rooted in His Word throughout the day and night.  Take the plunge, pray! Pause. Reflect. Act and yield. Spend time with God. Form a relationship with Him and walk with Him daily to be in His perfect and divine will for you as the righteous to live a blessed life. If you believe this truth, then you can become righteous too.

Finally, if you have been on an ungodly path, I invite you to cross over and do things God's way, so that you can become a godly righteous person who does things God's way. Let me know if you made the decision to cross over to a new path as a new believer by visiting www.giftedpublishing.com to join my mailing list. Continue to enjoy your quiet time with the Lord!
