Have you ever been told, “Take time to smell the roses”? We anxiously rush from one thing to another and are never at rest. We are constantly distracted by our cell phones, iPads, computers, and TV, things which, sadly, often control us! One old preacher said, “Jesus said, come apart and rest awhile, because if you don’t come apart, you’ll soon find you’ve come apart!”. Set aside time daily to stand still, sit still and be still, to enjoy sweet commune with your Lord and precious truths from His Word. Put away the distractions and enjoy the sweetness of His presence! —Jim Comte
Take time to be holy, the world rushes on;
Spend much time in secret with Jesus alone. —William D. Longstaff
