Solitude with Emmanuel - First15 Devotional

What this episode covers

How often are you alone with God? Truly alone, pulled away from the rest of the world, in the quiet and stillness of his presence? I believe God is beckoning his people this holiday season to experience his Immanuel, God with us, nearness. Our souls need it, and God longs for it. Just as you desire to experience his presence and peace, God wants to experience your nearness too, simply because he loves you. May you be encouraged and motivated today to get truly alone with the Father in these days. Our Scripture for today comes from John 1:14, and today's worship is Jesus, You're Beautiful by Jason Upton. Thanks so much for listening to today’s podcast, Solitude with Emmanuel. The older I get, the more I realize how hard solitude is to come by. As my home is filled with kids, and work gets busier and busier, it can be so difficult to make space to simply be quiet with God. But I’m also learning that the harder it gets, the more important it probably is. So as you go about your day today, take time to simply recognize your need for quiet. And if possible, find little moments throughout your day where you can make some space to rest in solitude. Have a wonderful rest of your day, and may God bless you as you seek him.
