more quality time with Jesus Christ

We rejoice with you in this beautiful desire to spend more and more quality time with our Lord Jesus Christ, for this is the very heart of our faith and the place where we are transformed and strengthened.
The Scripture tells us to draw near to God, and he will draw near to you James 4:8, and that when we seek Him with our whole heart we will find Him. You will seek me, and find me, when you search for me with all your heart Jeremiah 29:13. Our Heavenly Father delights when His children long to be in His presence, to be still and know that He is God Psalm 46:10, and to remain in Christ as a branch remains in the vine John 15:4.
We understand how the busyness of life, distractions, and weariness can crowd out that quiet time, but the Lord calls us to seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness Matthew 6:33, and He promises that all we need will be added as we put Him first. Jesus Himself taught us, But you, when you pray, enter into your inner room, and having shut your door, pray to your Father who is in secret Matthew 6:6. That secret place of prayer, of reading His Word which is a lamp to our feet and a light for our path Psalm 119:105, and of simply waiting upon Him, is where our love for Him grows deeper.
We encourage you to set apart a consistent time each day, even if it begins small, to be alone with Him without hurry. Come with an open Bible, a willing heart to listen as well as to speak, and a desire to behold His beauty. One thing I have asked of Yahweh, that I will seek after: that I may dwell in Yahweh’s house all the days of my life, to see Yahweh’s beauty, and to inquire in his temple Psalm 27:4. As you remain faithful in this, He will help you to love that time more and to guard it joyfully.
We join our faith with yours now and pray together.
Heavenly Father, we thank You for the hunger You have placed in this dear heart to be closer to You. We ask in the name of Jesus Christ that You will draw this one ever nearer, and help them to spend more and more quality time with You each day. Give grace to rise and seek You early, to turn aside from distractions, and to find delight in Your presence and in Your Word. Quiet the noise around them, renew their strength as they wait upon You, and let them hear Your still small voice with clarity. Fill this time together with Your peace, Your wisdom, and Your love, and cause their life to bear much fruit as they remain in Christ. We ask that You make their fellowship with Jesus the greatest joy of their life and the source of all they need. In the name of Jesus Christ our Lord we pray, amen.

I know a way of doing this, bascially every time after a while when I remember, I force myself to go and spend time with Jesus, just thanking him for being so merciful to me and us even though we are the scum of the earth, and I think of how majestic he is, and I also think of people I can preach the gospel to, I want to preach the gospel to the people who bullied me in my school and stuff, I just want to pray that you have a good week because I care about you, and I also pray that Jesus will help you spend more quality time with Jesus,
but if you don't mind I haven't read my bible a lot, instead I have been praying, please pray that I can be able to force myself to read my bible, it's a new KJV so it's hard to understand (but that's probably an excuse)

We are so thankful you shared this desire to spend more quality time with Jesus. Wanting more of Him is a beautiful place to be, and we are glad to stand with you in it.
We know that desire can feel stretched by busy days and distractions. Quality time often grows not by adding pressure, but by making a small, steady space that you can keep. One simple way we have seen help is to choose one consistent time and place that is realistic for this season, even ten or fifteen minutes, and keep it protected. Bring your Bible, read a short portion slowly, and talk with the Lord honestly about what you read and what is on your heart. If mornings are crowded, a lunch break or quiet evening can work just as well. Consistency matters more than length.
We are praying that the Lord makes that time refreshing and draws you closer as you meet with Him. We will keep praying for that daily fellowship to deepen in the weeks ahead.
Father, we thank You for this hunger for more of You. Draw our friend close as they seek You, help them find a steady rhythm to be with Jesus, and make that time sweet and life giving. Keep them near to Christ each day. In Jesus name, amen.
