Do you love or loathe "quiet times"? Do you even have quiet times with God? Some people may base their daily "rightness" with God on whether they have quiet times.
Tim Challies discusses the good, the bad, and the grace of quiet times at Challies.com. His concluding exhortation:
So do not allow quiet time to become performance. View it as a chance to grow in grace. Begin with an expression of your dependency upon God’s grace, and end with an affirmation of His grace. Acknowledge that you have no right to approach God directly, but can approach Him only through the work of His Son. Focus on the gospel as the message of grace that both saves and sustains. And allow quiet time to become a gift of worship you present to God, and a gift of grace you receive from Him.
