Mark 6: 30-31 ” The apostles gathered around Jesus and reported to Him all they had done and taught. Then, because so many people were coming and going that they did not even have a chance to eat, He said to them, ‘Come with Me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.’ “

I bet that if you ask someone who you admire for their strong Christian walk,  you’ll find out that a quiet time with the Lord is a vital part of their day.  I discovered it as a young Christian over 36 years ago and it still remains a necessary part of my routine.  When the Lord said, “Come with Me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.”  He was speaking to all of us.  In this noisy, chaotic world we live in today we need those moments of peace and quiet to be renewed, refreshed and revived as we read God’s Word, pray, and listen to the Holy Spirit for guidance.  If you’re not already doing this, I’d urge you to start the practice of daily coming away with the Lord…it will change your life for the better.
