Quiet Time with God
The next morning, Jesus woke up very early. Jesus left the
house while it was still dark. He went to a place to be alone
and pray.
-- Mark 1:35 (ERV)
KEY THOUGHT:
Jesus had a regular, disciplined time to be alone with his Father each
day. His quiet time with his Father was intentional; it was a priority
he built into his day and it required his effort -- effort to wake up
early before everyone else, and effort to go out away from everyone
else so he could talk with God by himself. How intentional is your
daily time with the Father?
TODAY'S PRAYER:
O loving and tender Father, God Almighty who has the power to save,
forgive me for those periods in my life when I have let my time with
you suffer. I confess that I let other things and the hectic pace of my
life steal away my time with you. Empower my resolve to put you first
in my heart and in my daily schedule. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
