3 Ways to Refresh Your Quiet Time This Spring

Open Bible with spring flowers, representing a fresh start in quiet time with God.

Spring is a season of renewal, growth, and fresh beginnings—a perfect time to refresh your quiet time with God. If your Bible study and prayer routine have started to feel dry, here are three simple ways to bring new life into your time with Him.

1. Surrender First—Then Study

Distraction is one of the biggest challenges in quiet time. If your mind feels cluttered, pause before you open your Bible. Pray, surrender, and invite God to quiet your heart. Just like spring begins with planting, your quiet time begins with an open and ready spirit.

“Be still, and know that I am God.” — Psalm 46:10

2. Shift from Asking to Awe

Instead of coming to God only with requests, approach Him with a heart of worship. Reflect on His goodness and let gratitude shape your time with Him. Consider:

Starting your quiet time with a worship song
Journaling about God’s character
Reading a psalm of praise

“Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name.” — Psalm 100:4

3. Start Small & Let It Grow

If you’ve struggled to stay consistent in your Bible study, don’t pressure yourself to do an hour-long study right away. Instead, start small—just 5-10 minutes a day. God will grow your faith as you commit to time with Him.

“He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion.” — Philippians 1:6
