Calendar

A Cleared Calendar

Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed.LUKE 5:16 NIV

How long has it been since you let God have you?I mean really have you? How long since you gave him a portion of undiluted, uninterrupted time listening for his voice?

Apparently, Jesus did.

He made a deliberate effort to spend time with God.Spend much time reading about the listening life of Jesus and a distinct pattern emerges. He spent regular time with God, praying and listening.

Mark says, “Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed”

(Mark 1:35 NW)....Let me ask the obvious. If Jesus, the Son of God, the sinless Savior of humankind, thought it worthwhile to dear his calendar to pray, wouldn’t we be wise to do the same?
