Ever catch yourself just need to stop for a moment and take a breath? Just to stop and rest for a second? For a minute? An hour? Or more? We live in a busy world. We have busy lives. Our days are so busy, sometimes we judge how successful they were by how busy we are. With all this busyness, it’s easy to get distracted from life with God. It’s easy for us to lose sight of what he has planned for us. Each day we should get up and be thankful for the blessings that he has for us. And keep our focus on him. Sometimes we need to remind ourselves that serving him should be the focus. Not trying to be successful by just being busy.
God knows what’s best for us. Think about your personal life, and how many times God has blessed you. How many times has he seen you through difficult moments. The Bible tells us to not stifle the Holy Spirit. If we let the Holy Spirit take control, we will change from the inside out. Everything around us will change. How we view what is success. How we handle difficult times. And how we handle joyful times. Our relationships will change. Basically, our lives will change.
A partnership with God is always available for us. Isn’t it awesome that all you have to do is ask and you will receive. He is waiting. It’s up to us. We must believe. The Holy Spirit is ready to guide you. So try to strive each day to serve God and not serve your flesh. Be open with God. Ask him to guide all that you do. He is willing and ready. He listens. Nothing wrong with being busy. But let’s try to be busy by letting God guide us in what we do. His wisdom will help you with your choices. I promise you, if you let him in and truly serve him, your life will change. I can promise you that, because he promises you that. And he promises you that because he loves you. Always has. Always will.
