DAILY READINGS: 1 Samuel 25; Isaiah 63:15 to 64:12; Romans 7:7-25
And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat. Mark 6:31
Communing with the Lord is essential to the Christian life. We call it a quiet time. Two elements are required for this quiet time. A place (“a desert or private place”) and a time (rest a while, no length of time is specified). You must take the time, from something else, to make time for Him. Then look for a place to be alone with God. Remember, if you don’t take the time, it won’t take place. —Rex Trogdon
Take time to be holy, the world rushes on;
Spend much time in secret with Jesus alone,
By looking to Jesus, like Him thou shalt be;
Thy friends in thy conduct, His likeness shall see. —William D. Longstaff
