Many relationships are striving for more quality time. It is a fact that couples need to spend more meaningful time together. That is also true of parents. Children need us to spend more quality time with them. Quality time is a dynamic that is needed in every relationship — including our relationship with God. We need to spend quality time with God so that we can hear from Him. We need time to not only talk to God, but to also acknowledge His |goodness, kindness, love, and mercy that He has shown toward us. We need time to draw closer to Him. When was the last time that you spent quality time with the Lord, meditating on His Word? In Matthew 18:20, we find these words:

“For where two or three gather together as my followers, I am there among them.”

Jesus, the Master Teacher, delivers the Parable of the Lost Sheep. In this chapter, He tells the believers about the blessings that come to a group of just two or three people who are gathered, spending quality time with Him. He wants them to know about the blessings that come when one draws closer to Him. When you get a chance, read this chapter, then spend some quality time with the Lord.
