Solitude
Today at MCC, we talked about solitude which is the spiritual practice of voluntarily and temporarily withdrawing to privacy for spiritual purposes. Pastor Henry read Psalm 62 where the psalmist is waiting quietly before God and finding his rock, salvation and fortress in God alone. Jesus also gave us the example of solitude and silence by retreating to spend time alone with His Father. Here are some reasons why solitude is good for us to periodically engage in:1. To develop a better, deeper relationship with God,
2. To see things in a spiritual perspective,
3. To hear the voice of God,
4. To express faith in God.
You can intentionally set aside time for solitude and read a Bible passage to meditate on or you can view opportunities when you have to wait for something as a time to focus on what God is doing.
When was the last time you spent in solitude with God?
