Do the JWs practice devotional time or quite time?

    Like what Jesus did and Christians are supposed to have quite time/time spent with God.

    Matthew 26:26

    Mark 1:35

    Luke 5:16

    The WTS calls it meditation.

    *** w07 12/1 p. 26 par. 3 Are You for Jehovah’s Sovereignty? ***

    To be prepared for the task at hand, “Jesus, full of holy spirit, turned away from the Jordan, and he was led about by the spirit in the wilderness.” (Luke 4:1; Mark 1:12) There, for 40 days Jesus had time to meditate deeply on the issue of sovereignty raised by Satan and on the course that He had to take to uphold Jehovah’s sovereignty.

    They were always talking about "meditation," but they never actually explained what that meant. For me, the more I "meditated" on the scriptures the more questions popped up in my mind.

    I don't know when a JW with a job, family & meetings to contend with would ever find the time to meditate?
