Alone. Jesus felt the need to be alone. He liked to spend time just focusing on God the Father, to hear what He had to say--to get direction. But Jesus Himself would often slip away to the wilderness and pray. Luke 5:16. He would slip away. Once He became so well known this must have been more difficult to do. It was by choice--specific determination that Jesus took time to pray--to meet alone with the Heavenly Father. That is our choice also...to meet--or not to meet--with the Heavenly Father and Jesus, the Son, every day--or as often as we choose.
RSVP: Jesus is inviting us to meet with Him...and with His Father, our Heavenly Father. How will you respond to Him today?
Prayer~ Lord Jesus, like You, I want to spend time alone with God. Sometimes what I want just doesn't happen since I allow other people or things to control my time. Help me to consider my options, moment by moment...that I would choose to serve You and to seek guidance from You. Alone.
