When you look at a dove walking, you will find that he always makes a step,
then stop, then makes another stop, and so on. According to a research, it
is caused by the dove's limited sight--he cannot automatically focuses his

And so it is with this life. We need time to stop for a while and focus our

In Webster dictionary, "being alone" or "solitude" is defined as separation
or breaking up. We need to separate ourselves and break up from the
busyness and then return to focus on God. Jesus sets particular moments to
be alone. Don't we need that more? Why?
- in solitude, we set time to pray [bible]0mark1:35[/bible]
- in solitude, we set time to meditate on the Word of God and avoid sins

- in solitude, we gain strength to overcome temptations
[bible]psalm63:6-7[/bible]
