since we're talking about priorities, lets not forget the number 1 priority--cultivating a true relationship with Jesus Christ. When we give our solitude times with God the number one priority, all the other responsibilities seem to fall into place. I've also learned that if your relationship with God is first place, "Burn-Out" is an idea seldom thought of. Jesus was an extremely busy person, but everything He done had great eternal significance. But, the key is, He would often retreat in Solitude to be alone with the father. (i.e. 40 fasting in the Wilderness, The Garden of Gethsemene, ect...) During those Solitude times it seems that He was specifically preparing Himself for things that lie ahead. (His 3 year ministry, The Crucifixion, ect...) Since we should model ourselves after Christ, we too should place great importance on creating a time to spend with the Father. And when we are truly fed, then we can in turn feed others. damien _______ To unsubscribe, send "unsubscribe rangernet" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Eat the hay & spit out the sticks!" RTKB&G4JC!
