COME AWAY WITH GOD for a while. – SONG OF SONGS 2 : 13, LUKE 10 : 42

“COME AWAY WITH GOD for a while. The world, with its nonstop demands, can be put on hold. Most people put GOD on hold, rationalizing that someday they will find time to focus on The LORD. But the longer people push GOD into the background of their lives, the harder it is for them to find HIM. You live among people who glorify busyness; they have made time a tyrant that controls their lives. Even those who know GOD as Savior tend to march to the tempo of the world. They have bought into the illusion that more is always better: more meetings, more programs, more activity. The LORD has called you to follow HIM on a solitary path, making time alone with GOD your highest priority and deepest Joy. It is a pathway largely unappreciated and often despised. However, you have chosen the better thing, which will never be taken away from you. Moreover, as you walk close to GOD, The LORD can bless others through you.”

Scripture

The fig tree forms its early fruit; the blossoming vines spread their fragrance. Arise, come, my darling; my beautiful one, come with me.” SONG OF SONGS 2 : 13

“But only one thing is needed. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.” LUKE 10 : 42

Prayer

Prayer: God, draw me away from the noise and hurry of the world. Teach me to treasure quiet time with You more than anything else. Help me resist the pull of busyness and remember that You are my deepest joy. As I walk closely with You, use me to bring Your peace and love to others. Amen.
