*Quiet Times*

My friend Mary told me that she had always valued the time she spent fishing with her dad. Not being a fishing aficionado myself, I was curious about what she found so enjoyable.

“I just like being with my dad,” she said. “So you just fish and talk?” I asked her. “Oh, no, we don’t really talk,” she said. “We just fish.”

It wasn’t the conversation – *it was the company*.

Did you ever think about how much time we spend talking ? In what we like to call our “quiet time” with God, we usually fill in any silence with our prayers. But do we ever practice just being “still”? God said, “Be still, and know that I am God”.

When Jesus noticed that the disciples were so busy that they didn’t even have time to eat, He told them, “Come aside by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while”. When we leave the distractions of life behind, we can more easily rest and refocus on God.

Are you allowing quiet moments alone with God to be a part of your life ? Do you desire for Him to restore your soul ? Let Him teach you how to *“be still.”* And listen when Jesus invites you: “Come aside with Me and rest a while.”~ Cindy Hess Kasper The quiet times we spend with God. In solitude and prayer.
