I don't know if this applies to anyone else, but it can feel a bit awkward for me to isolate myself to talk with God. But for some reason, when I'm alone in the car, it's quite easy to talk to Him about anything: "Wow....nice job on that cloud formation"......"Hey, I know I reacted poorly to so-and-so the other day. I feel bad and will apologize."..... "I might need some additional wisdom for this big decision I'm facing.... That kind of thing. Also, when someone cuts me off in traffic or I hit 10 red lights in a row...."Don't worry, God. I'll stay calm and NOT let Satan into my car."
I'm not saying you shouldn't get away somewhere to talk to God....just saying that there are also other opportunities.
That's good. Such an important piece of advice Jesus has shown us. I have to do this and thankful for a husband who supports me in this. When I'm feeling the chaos and I need a break, I grab my Bible and head to the room. There's no other thing that can ground me quicker than some alone time. On the way to work today, I chuckled at how fortunate I am that my best friend is the Creator of Life.
