40 days with Mark and Jesus (3)

Mark 1:35-45

There is so much to be done. In every town there was a leper to heal, by every lake shore a crowd gathering to hear these amazing teachings. We must notice that our Lord Jesus did not take time out from these things but made time elsewhere in his life for prayer. Walking with Jesus, living in the Kingdom of God is to live in a relationship with God as our Father, a relationship that grows and is sustained by prayer. What time do we make in our lives for prayer?

Prayer: O Father, we thank you for the welcome to give us to come into your presence and live our lives together with you. Teach us the way of prayer that we might often be found before you and that times of prayer might shape our lives in the likeness of Christ.
