Solitude with God is a discipline. An essential discipline. We have to relearn to be still, in this time where appointments and schedules rule our day. When we run from silence. We don't hear God because we don't take the time to listen. We are doing people and if we don't do we feel worthless. God calls us to rest with Him. In our solitude with Him we will get to know the real God. Our picture of God might change from a judgmental, revengeful, non-caring god to a gentle, loving, always embracing God. From a distant god who's out to get you to a God of complete acceptance and Grace.
