Matthew 14:23 NASB "After He had sent the crowds away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray; and when it was evening, He was there alone."It's ok!! Today's verse is some great advice when the noise of the world gets too loud! Whether it's sitting in a boat, walking in the woods, or just sitting in my chair at home, it's good to take some time to just sit and pray. Many times the world's noise gets so loud that we may miss the voice of the Holy Spirit trying to speak to us. The busy schedule seems to be what leads us to the next thing rather than the leading of the Holy Spirit. Like Jesus, we need to go by ourselves and pray. Not just a quick moment but for an hour or two. Let the Holy Spirit refresh us, renew us and give us strength to carry on. It's ok to take some time with the Father, it was good enough for Jesus, it should be good enough for us! peace, tom
