Summary: Robert Murray McCheyne: “I ought to pray before seeing any one…Christ arose before day and went into a solitary place. David says: ‘Early will I seek thee’… I feel it is far better to begin with God—to see his face first, to get my soul near him before it is near another.” Psalm 4:1: “Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.”
