Read Luke chapter 5

VERSE:

Luke 5:16–But Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed.

TRUTH:

Jus because a place is lonely doesn’t mean that time spent there is. Jesus sought out those quiet places in order to be able to better hear His Father and seek His will and direction. As we encounter those quiet pauses in life, whether standing in a line, driving, sitting at home, we can use that time to seek our Father and His direction. As we realize how much a little bit of time spent with God will impact our life, we will find ourselves seeking out more and more time to seek God’s face through prayer. Have you spent time seeking after God today?

RESPONSE:

Father, I will seek after You and desire to see You work and move in my life. I will use the pauses in my life to converse with You and I will make time to seek You out specifically in prayer. Thank You for all that You have done in my life and giving me a chance to share with You.
