Ever catch yourself just going, going, going? Moving from one thing to the next without even thinking about it? Just doing it? Sometimes our lives get so busy, we can feel like we\u2019re not doing something correctly if we\u2019re not busy. We can be so caught up in what we are doing, we forget \u201cwhy\u201d we are doing it. And in this world, that\u2019s easy to do. With our families, jobs, children sports, church, etc., etc., etc. At the end of the day, we remember what we did. But have totally forgotten what the goal or purpose was. Is this you? Does this sound familiar? Fear not! You are not alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maybe it\u2019s time for us to intentionally carve out parts of our day to be with God. To be in his presence. To take time and deliberately be still if only for a few moments. Our relationship with him should be priority one. It should be our main focus. It\u2019s easy to lose sight of that in this busy world. But that\u2019s the truth. It should be our focus. When it is, then we will realize and understand the purpose of why we are doing what we are doing. We will keep our eyes on the end goal. Not on the process alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If we\u2019re honest with ourselves, we know that we can find a spot for Jesus in everything that we are doing. Whatever it is that has our attention throughout the day, there is room for him. It may take us some time to try to pinpoint it. But it\u2019s there. There\u2019s always room for him. Actually, it should be the other way around. We should find a way to put \u201cwhat\u201d we are doing into what God has planned for us. Not fitting him into our lives. That\u2019s the wrong way. We need to put our lives in him. Every aspect of our lives. Keeping him the focus. We can find the rest we need. We can be recharged in his presence. Then we can move forward, doing his work, serving others, all the while having Jesus lead us. And that is awesome.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
