Encountering God in Solitude
The ultimate goal of solitude is encountering God. Sometimes that happens easily. But sometimes our encounter looks more like a wrestling match, where we bring to Him the questions, doubts, and painful disappointments with Him that hide in the shadows of our hearts. But the story of Jacob shows us that if we are willing to wrestle through these painful places, we will discover a renewed trust and a deeper intimacy with God than ever before.
