Where our mission is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Hello, my friend, I am Guthrie Chamberlain, your captain on our journey to increase Wisdom and Create a Living Legacy.\xa0Thank you for joining us today as we explore wisdom on our 2nd millennium of podcasts. This is Day 1475 of our Trek, and it is time for our 3-minute mini trek called Wisdom Unplugged.\xa0This short nugget of wisdom includes an inspirational quote with a little bit of additional content for today\u2019s trek.\xa0Consider this your vitamin supplement of wisdom for today.\xa0So let\u2019s jump right in with today\u2019s nugget:
Today\u2019s quote is from \xa0B. H. Streeter, and it is: \xa0If Christ Himself needed to retire from time to time to the mountain-top to pray, lesser men need not be ashamed to acknowledge that necessity.\xa0\xa0
Not AshamedMy personality is such, where I have difficulty taking time to rest, relax, and renew.\xa0There always seems to be so much that needs to be completed. The workload from clients seems to be constant, and more than I can reasonable achieve in any given week.\xa0I have my daily podcast to write, record, edit, and publish. There is also an endless list of repair and upkeep activities in and around The Big House.\xa0I feel a sense of self-imposed guilt whenever I take time to rest, knowing that the other tasks are continuing to pile up.\xa0As I grow older, and hopefully wiser, I know that I need to force myself to unplug and to retire from time to time for some solitude and prayer.\xa0I don\u2019t know if it will ever be easy for me to do so without feeling ashamed, but I do understand how important it is.\xa0I have to understand and recognize that God\u2019s Son, Jesus Christ, had constant demands on His time and the weight of all humankind on His shoulders and yet He often withdrew into the wilderness to renew Himself physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.\xa0\xa0\xa0If Christ himself needed to retire from time to time to the wilderness to pray, I, being so much lesser than He is, should never be ashamed to acknowledge my necessity to do the same.

But Jesus often\xa0withdrew\xa0to the wilderness for\xa0prayer.
