Christmas madness an alternative to materrialism, time to listen

Alone with God


"Modern civilization is so complex as to make the devotional life all but impossible. It wears us out by multiplying distractions and beats us down by destroying our solitude, where otherwise we might drink and renew our strength before going out to face the world again.
"The thoughtful soul to solitude retires," said the poet of other and quieter times; but where is the solitude to which we can retire today? Science, which has provided men with certain material comforts, has robbed them of their souls by surrounding them with a world hostile to their existence.
"Commune with your own heart upon your bed and be still" is a wise and healing counsel, but how can it be followed in this day of the newspaper, the telephone, the radio and the television? These modern playthings, like pet tiger cubs, have grown so large and dangerous that they threaten to devour us all and undo a sound mind. What was intended to be a blessing has become a positive curse. No spot is now safe from the world's intrusion."


We felt you might like this since many of us cator to it maybe a time for a break.?







Our prayers at narrowway to all those without food, hope, love, and reason to go on, we know what it;s like, over ten years of street ministry, May this season be a new one a new life take the time to read the scriptures, we enjoy the kj3 or the Young's literal, yes, were serious about getting back to truth,is, we decided  we wanted to be rich in his ways.  After all life is to short to be guessing. Love to you in the Christmas season, from narrowway,, always with his hope, joy and love .

"And when He had sent the multitudes away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. Now when evening came, He was alone there." Matthew 14:23
