| A CLEARED CALENDAR |
|

5:16 But he withdrew to the wilderness and prayed. 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).... Let me ask the obvious. If Jesus, the Son of God, the sinless Savior of humankind, thought it worthwhile to clear His calendar to pray, wouldn't we be wise to do the same? Mac Lucado Just Like Jesus |

| Thank you for posting this. Even with a daily time set aside I find that I often "cut it short" because of other scheduled things. I needed to hear this today... |

I have put way to many things before God. I know I need to take some time and just sit at his feet and listen.
My dirty dishes will still be there waiting. Better dirty dishes than a dirty heart.
Thank you |

| I am so grateful for this time I have not had to work, so that I could spend more time with the Lord. I am on Social Security retirement, however, I will need to go back to work soon to supplement what I get. The Lord has been faithful in stretching my savings, so I could have this time off. I praise Him for giving me this time. |

How I miss my special times with the Lord as they don't happen so much
now that Hubby has retired and is at home most of the day
Maybe God will quicken his heart so that we can have those special times together. |

My day is not complete without the time I spend, praying and listening.
Without my Lord I am nothing!! Amen.
