"And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Jesus Christ." Phil. 4:7

God's "built-in security system".

That is another way of describing His peace which envelopes our heart and mind when we spend time reading His Word and praying.

Some describe their time alone with God as their "Quiet Time".

Obviously you have learned the value of this as you have taken time in this present moment to turn your thoughts toward Him in a moment of quietness as you seek His face to know His will.

The apostle Paul learned this invaluable lesson very early in his ministry as he spent three years directly following his conversion alone with God in prayer and meditation.  He was not idle during this time.  He was being prepared and equipped for the work to which he had been called.

Even Christ knew the value of being alone with God as He slipped away to a quiet place to pray for a season.

Time alone with God.

What a thought.    What a privilege!
