Mark 1:35
And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.
Today's Thought: If we want to see how God can work in us and through us, let us dedicate time and effort.
Simone Biles. This name was made famous by the Rio Olympics in 2016. She was a gymnast who won five medals, four of which are gold. She exhibited technical excellence with her difficult routines. Few years ago, Simone decided to be at the top. She worked hard in the gym for 32 hours per week, 12 hours more than her training schedule. Her Olympic medals proved the worth of her practice.
In Christian service we need to labor and put an effort in our Christian life. When Jesus was with us, He seized His time. he preached and taught; He healed the sick. At the end of the day, for sure Jesus was exhausted. He was human like us who got tired. But in this passage, we find Jesus communing with the Father, praying unto Him, sending His supplications.
Christian service is not just an easy one. It demands time and dedication. It requires effort and determination. Knowing the Lord does not come by doing nothing. You must walk with Him.
