Conference
THE PRESIDENT OF a large company wanted to talk to the factory's manager about an urgent matter...
But the manager's secretary said, "He cannot be disturbed. He's in conference -- as he is every day at this time." "Tell him the president wants to see him," the man responded impatiently. The secretary firmly replied, "I have strict orders, Sir, not to disturb him while he is in conference." Angrily, the man brushed past the secretary and opened the door to the manager's office. After one quick look he backed out, gently closed the door, and said, "I'm sorry!" The president had found his manager on his knees in front of his open Bible.
THOUGHTS: The purpose of a daily devotional time is to stimulate regular, intimate meetings with the King of kings. Jesus Himself spent regular time in prayer. Have you spent time in conference with God today? (M. R. De Haan)
KneEmail: "So He Himself often withdrew into the wilderness and prayed" ( Luke 5:16).
