You can meet with God while lying in bed. You don't have to be in a private room, with the door closed, bowed down on your knees to meet God. You can meet Him in the shower, while driving to work, or when stuck in a traffic jam.
I am not suggesting that you shouldn't set apart time for God. But you should also take advantage of any time you do have that you could be talking and listening to the Lord. Don't wait to talk to Him until you have a full hour to spend with Him. Grasp every minute you can find to open your ears to His voice. Take advantage of the idle moments already available to you and spend them with God.
I read this today from Joyce Meyer's Starting Your Day Right; it's the entry for March 19. I was very encouraged by these words. At this point in time of my life, an hour alone with God is hard. I desire it deeply, but life is insane and seems to get more so every day. I would encourage each one of you to look around your day with new eyes and take advantage of any and all moments you can talk to God even if you're doing something else while talking to Him.
