Taken aside by Jesus, to feel the touch of His hand:
To rest for a while in the shadow of the Rock in a weary land.

Taken aside by Jesus, to be quite alone with Him,
To hear His wonderful tones of love ‘mid the silence and shadows dim.

Taken aside by Jesus, shall I shrink from the desert place;
When I hear as I never heard before, and see Him face to face?

Are you following the call to be Holy, set apart unto God?
May this issue encourage you as you seek more of God and less of the world.
