GET AWAY FROM THE CROWD

I just had a very pleasant visit from some

out of state family.  We spent several days

doing things together and talking about things

of the Lord, or Spiritual matters.

However after they left I noticed something.

In my spirit I felt drained.  It took a little

while for me to catch on to what happened.

Through the apostle Paul God said;

"Never stop praying."

(1 Thessalonians 5:17 NLT)

and I try to do this.

But I have a problem.  I find it hard to 

visit with people and pray at the same 

time.  My problem was that my prayer 

time through out the day was near nile 

and I was drained in spirit.

Even Jesus had to get away from the 

crowds many times to be alone with

the Father.

Consider;

"But Jesus often withdrew to the 

wilderness for prayer."

(Luke 5:16 NLT)

We need to break away from excess

time with people and get with Father

God.  To some of us that only means

to shut the T.V. off.
