I so enjoyed the story of Hallesby’s little boy who poked his head into his father’s office saying that he will sit very still and not make a sound, but that he wanted to just be with his father. The little boy knew the rules, ‘He was not to interrupt his father as he was working in his home office.’ However, the little boy pleadingly wanted to be near his daddy. I cherish that mind picture because that’s how I like to be in my Abba Father’s presence . . . I like to sit quietly and ‘just be’ in His presence. Please, Abba, if I just sit without fidgeting and without talking, may I sit in Your presence. Amen and Amen.
