Don’t lose track of time…
But make sure that you don’t get so absorbed and exhausted in taking care of all your day-by-day obligations that you lose track of the time and doze off, oblivious to God.
Romans 13:12 (The Message)
It’s easy for us to get so busy with our day by day obligations that sometimes we can get so “busy” that we don’t “have time” to spend with God…when that should be our FIRST priority every day! If you find yourself feeling far away from God it could be that you aren’t spending enough time with Him, and that He isn’t your top priority. Make spending time with God your FIRST priority every day, time in the bible, in prayer, in quiet time with God first thing every day, and you will be refreshed, renewed and encouraged every day to complete the rest of your day by day obligations! But if you put God last on the list the day often slips away without spending time with Him, and it’s then that we start to drift farther away from him and start feeling frustrated in every area of our life. The closer to God we are and the more time we spend with him, the more we’ll be content in every area of our life, through both the good and the bad times. Make sure you spend time with God every day – you won’t regret it!
