Time With Him

Time With Him by Kirk Hunt

 

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 KJV

 

Busy schedules can be a sinister, cruel trap.  Yes, the needs are great.  Surely, the opportunities are rich.  Still, below the surface of constant effort, lay the rocks of exhaustion and weariness.

 

Have you been busy in the Gospel fields?   Do you labor in the marketplace?  Then you are a good servant.

 

Still, the Master calls you.  He beckons from a quiet place where He can have you to Himself.  There is more to Christianity than labor and striving.

 

Do not go too many hours without spending time with Him.  Make sure He is in your meeting schedules.  Let His peace and joy flood through your soul on a regular basis.

 

Are you really His?  When was the last time you sat at His feet?  How long has it been since His presence blanketed your soul?

 

There will be times and days when you run non-stop.  It becomes all the more important to linger at a quiet place, resting with the Master.  The human mind and heart are not built for constant striving.  The mortal soul is not designed to be away from Him for long.

 

The lions and giants in your life will wait another few minutes.  Spend some money on a quiet chat with a loving Savior.  It will be a good investment.

 

 

Think:            No achievement should interfere with your time alone with Jesus.

 

Pray:              “Lord, help me to be disciplined about spending time with You.”
