So Jesus has a lie in to recover! NO not at all Jesus does what is truly needful, he get up while it is still dark before 6 am when it gets light and goes out possibly into the hills behind the village to spend time with God, to pray which as the prayer letter reminds us this week includes listening! Peter and the others come to find him and tell him people here need to see you again, but Jesu knew he had but just started and in the area of Galilee there were over 200 villages and it was to more of them he went, guided, driven possibly, by His time of quiet and solitude in prayer with His Dad.

There most surely is a message in there for us isn’t there. If Jesus God’s Son needed that time to sort out His life, His priorities, how much more do we? Quiet times alone with God listening to Him, remembering that solitude can be achieved in the presence of others so our Quiet Day in June will allow some solitude time. It can as one preacher outlined be in the company of someone close who wishes to share the experience of just being out, in the car, on foot, with God. Yes it can be on our own, but let us use our imaginations prayerfully to allow God to guide us into those quiet times. Times spent with Him, quality time as we call it, remembering that great and inspiring truth, I was refreshed with this week in Bible exploration, we are the product of God’s imagination, what a person to spend time with.
