Caught up in the moment!

I'd like to apologize, it's been a while since my last post. I've been so busy, caught up in day to day things. And that's what this post is about- Being caught up. There are so many days when i get caught up, and forget to read the word. Everyone else may have devotion time every morning, but i'm just not that holy. I try my best to find time for God, and that sounds horrible. But i'm guessing i'm not the only one. The way i see it, this is a problem that most Christians face, but don't talk about. If we admit that we fall short, and don't read our bibles for 6 hours every morning, then we appear to be a failure as a Christian. WRONG. That's legalism. The word is VERYYY important in your Christian walk, but shouldn't be a pain to read. It's not the same if you view time in God's word as a hassle. Sometimes our lives get in the way of our prayer lives, and our study time.

There is a solution! What? DO EVERYTHING with God. You heard what i said. Do everything with God. The bible says he's with us always, and that doesn't just mean when we think we need him. He's there when we are at the movies, when we're hanging out with friends and family, when we're alone, when we're awake, and asleep. He's always with us. So whey do we pretend that he only pays attention when we "summon" him in prayer? We walk daily, ignoring the fact that the Holy Spirit dwells inside of us. Ridiculous, right? Why do we do that?

When we begin to acknowledge the presence of God outside of church, we can move toward acknowledging him in the most mundane parts of our daily lives. Me and Jesus watch movies together, we drive around together, we even get ready together. Why?  Because he's there. So you might as well include him:)  Give Jesus the time he deserves. He's the one who gave you life, and made it possible for you to do the things you do every day. Don't be too busy to recognize his existence.
