“I don’t have enough time…”

So…I’m not sure if anyone else struggles with this or if it’s just me, but i was just doing some thinking. This past week and a half I confess that my time with the Lord has been very limited. As I was thinking on that I started to justify in my mind why that has been. The big thing is,” I’m too busy. I have a wedding that I’m planning for, so I just dont’ have…” Can you fill in the blank? Yes, i was going to finish that thought, but then it hit me. “What are you talking about?” I have all the time in the world to spend with my precious Father. I just allow myself to get caught up with busyness and the noise of everyday life. I then realized that it’s these times that i get busy and stressed with so much to do that I need Him all the more. What a reminder it is for me that I need to just take a step back, and not only seek Him for strength, guidance, and wisdom, but also to cultivate that relationship and get to know more of who He is. I’ve definitely found myself more vulnerable without Him this week. So i just confess that I’ve allowed myself to place other things as idols above Him this week, and I repent of my sin. I encourage all of us if we are finding ourselves too busy to spend time with Him, than maybe some of the things that we are doing, can wait until we’ve had some quality and quantity time with our Heavenly Father.
