Secret Place







Monte and I spend a lot of time in the forest. We spend time praying and reflecting on the Lord. These are precious moments that we cherish deeply.

God calls us into the heart of the forest. He calls us to His living streams. He beckons us to linger by the riverbanks. He invites us to enter into His secret place.

In our busy and hectic lives, we can easily be swept away by the tide of life. We get distracted easily. The television, the newspapers, the magazines, the books, shopping, dining, recreation are luring us every corner we turn. The ever burgeoning social media platforms clamour for our attention endlessly.

The Lord beckons: "Come away with me!" He draws us into His inner chambers. He leads us to flowing streams and still water. He desires to fellowship with us. He desires to reveal His thoughts to us. He longs to share His heart with us.

We desperately need to be alone with Him. A place of solitude. A place of tranquility.  Precious moments where we still our hearts before the Lord.  The only voice that will be ringing loud and clear comes from our loving Father. He is with us in every season of our lives. He walks with us every step of the way.
