My only question is how to slow down. <br /><br />I once read that Martin Luther would rise early in the morning and spend the first three hours of his day in prayer and meditation upon the Word. If his day was especially busy, he might even spend up to five hours alone with the Lord. He did this at one of the busiest times in his life when the Reformation was in full swing and when people were constantly wanting his attention and/or his death. This seems like such an odd thing to spend more time with God and slow down even more whenever you are the busiest. However, when we are the busiest, that is when we need the Lord the most. <br /><br />Anyways, great post. Thanks for taking me on the trip with you.JoeyTriphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08913232546262442684noreply@blogger.com
