Although Jesus was surrounded by crowds of people much of the time, He also took time to withdraw from the groups and to be alone with His Father.  He found a moment to refresh and refill so He could go out and spend time with the outcasts. I used circles to represent the crowds of people.  The large oval shape in the center portrays the important time alone.  I am challenged by Christ’s example of periodic solitude and prayer with the Father.  I realize that if I am to serve Him as He calls, I must take time to sit at His feet and be renewed.
