After working for this DIVER, and SWORD for almost a year now i start to realize the importance of dsily devotion for Christian spiritual life. The essence of spending time with God and His word is not so much about the method, but the reason. Paslm 1 gave me that importance furthermore with the understanding of "tree that is planted by the water" for it is a continual flow that made it possible. Its the essence of flow, and presence of God in devotion that will make the tree grows.
Whatever method we use to make it happen, unless we understand the rason behind it then it wont be a devotion, but rather just a religious activity. The spiritual essence of it is carried away by the routine of it, and the nature of human task fulfilling mentality.
Deep spiritual understanding will come when we know what we do is because why we do.
