It’s interesting, before Covid most complained that life was too busy and we had very little to no down time. After Covid we’ve had a lot of time at home and less time out doing stuff. I bring this up because regardless of how busy or boring your life is we all need alone time with God. Jesus spent a lot of time in prayer with the Father. In Luke chapter 5 after healing a leaper we read this about Jesus: 

“However, the report went around concerning Him all the more; and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by Him of their infirmities. So He Himself often withdrew into the wilderness and prayed.” Luke 5:15-16 (NKJV)

Luke tells us that Jesus withdrew into the wilderness often to pray. He spent time alone with God more than just every once in a while. Jesus prayed to His Father often. We too need to spend more alone time in prayer with our heavenly Father. Let’s join together this Sunday morning and consider the reasons this is so.
