5 Minutes That Change Everything: Meeting God in the Momentsნიმუში

Small Time. Big Impact.

Jesus often woke early to be alone with the Father. “And rising very early in the morning… he departed and went out to a desolate place, and there he prayed” (Mark 1:35, ESV). That’s how He began His day—even when crowds were pressing in and needs surrounded Him.

He wasn’t performing a ritual. He was nurturing a relationship.

We live in a fast-paced world. Between work, school, kids, and constant notifications, time feels like a luxury. It’s easy to think we need thirty minutes or an hour to truly meet with God. So when we can’t give that, we often give up entirely.

But here’s the truth: God isn’t looking at the clock. He’s looking at your heart.

Five minutes with God may seem small. But small things grow. One honest prayer. One verse read slowly. One quiet pause before the day begins. These small moments of connection can build a steady rhythm of walking with God. They remind you that He’s near. They realign your heart with what matters most.

And if Jesus—the Son of God—took time to meet with the Father amid a full schedule, how much more should we? Not because we have to, but because we get to.

Gospel Truth: You don’t meet with God to earn His love—you meet with Him because, in Jesus, you already have it (Romans 5:1–2, ESV).
