But Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed.

Luke 5:16 (NIV)


After he had dismissed them, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone.

Matthew 14:23 (NIV)


Solitude Exercise


1.Be still for long enough to quiet your mind.

2.Acknowledge that Jesus is present and invite him to teach you.

3.Play back you day in your head like a video. This may lead you to pray for patience, greater love, courage, forgiveness, or other virtues.

4.As you go through the scenes of your day and reflect on them, pray for the people you encountered. Speak to God about what makes you grateful and what you regret.

5.End with a prayer of thanksgiving for God’s mercy and love.
