The Spiritual Nature of Downtime

We live in a chaotic, noisy world. Even when alone, apart from everyone, we are bombarded with texts, emails, and social media messages. All vying for our attention. Seeking solitude and silence is not only about finding a quiet place. It's about discovering the beauty of removing ourselves from the cacophony of alerts, alarms, and messages to find rest in the Word, in Jesus. It because of this your downtime, or free time, is your best opportunity for spiritual growth. A commitment to using your downtime to find rest in God's Word will determine what, if any, fruit you produce with your life.
