Everyone you talk to now days have a common phrase they say. “I am SO busy”!! Everyone is busy or thinks they are busy. In some conversations I listen to, it almost seems like a competition to see who is busier! I have caught myself in those conversations and never like that it is my focus and drive at that moment in life. Being busy is not a bad thing at all, but when you gauge your success in life on how busy you are, it is definitely the wrong thing.
There is that old saying “Be sure to stop and smell the roses” that reminds us to slow down and enjoy life from time to time. My word of encouragement for us all today is to make sure we take time for what should be the number one priority in our lives, and that is time in the Word and time with God!
Work will always be there and things to do will always be there, but what is any of it worth if we don’t have our priorities in line. God should always be first in everything we do, no matter how busy we get!
Thanks for your time and for checking in,
