Time Out

   We live our days in absolute high gear all of the time. With Droids, iPhones, iPads, laptops, basically modern convenience technology,  we are used to a lot of instant gratification and access to infinite information. With a single question or command, technology now responds to us to as close as human form as possible, and it is getting really close.
   We drive fast cars to distant places with lots of people seven days a week, going as fast as we can all of the time. Most of the time, hopefully, we are running so hard to in some way show the love of Christ to someone else, in which, in my opinion, is amazing!
   But answer this, when have you just stopped your car on the side of the road with a lot of trees, and just listened to the breeze rustle through the leaves? When have you just went somewhere by yourself, and rested and listened to the Lord, without a phone, or anything that could be a possible distraction?
   Exactly. Hopefully your answer is not never, but it probably is not as often as it should be. God is with you everywhere, true, but dont you think that maybe we should get some quiet time alone with Him, so that He may renew, grow, and comfort us?
