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

Quiet time can refer to those precious moments after the kids are in bed, or during the drive to work, or when you simply shut off the TV! For Christians, quiet time opens a channel with God. It sounds simple, but we live in a world of noise. Everywhere we go, even in our own homes, there is some kind of noise to distract us. But making time daily to listen for God, to think the thoughts of God, is food for growing into a life centered in God.

What can you change today so that quiet time is possible? What makes this difficult? Where did you last hear God saying something to you?

Thank you God for hearing me, even when I cannot be quiet. Create in me a clean heart, God, and renew a right spirit within me. Amen.
