Daily Encounter: A Week-day Devotional by a staff of ACTS International.

Friday, January 15, 2021

"Then, because so many people were coming and going that they did not even have a chance to eat, he [Jesus] said to them, 'Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.'"¹

Or as someone else has said, "Come apart and rest a while before you come apart!"

I remember years ago having the following saying on a card on my desk, "Beware of the barrenness of a busy life!" I think in our day and age so many of us struggle with being too busy. I certainly do. It is a constant battle.

Today's suggested prayer is in the words of Orin L. Crain:
