“Time, Slips Away”

My last entry was months ago. I feel like time completely slipped away from me. My husband and I work with his folks. It’s a seasonal business, so come spring and summer; it is a rat race from day to day. I let what time I did have slip away. I would tell myself all the time, “You need to write a blog…. Take the time to write a blog.” And before I knew it, the blog wasn’t getting done. Oh I had lots of thoughts and ideas. But because I didn’t write them down, they are long gone and forgotten.

I have learned that our time is valuable and we need to take advantage of what time we have in a day.

I knew that the enemy would love nothing more to keep us so busy that we don’t take the necessary time needed to stay focused on Jesus. That has been my lesson as spring turned into summer and summer faded into fall. I have to stay focused and take time to write to reflect on how important my time with God is.

Forgive me Lord for not writing. You know my heart, mind and spirit. You know when I rise and when I sit. Be with me Lord. May whatever I do reflect Jesus, in my words, face and personality.

“O Lord, you have searched me and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways.” Psalm 139:1-3
