Read: 1 Corinthians 3:12-13“For in Him we live and move and exist, as even some of your own poets have said, 'For we also are His children.'” – Acts 17:28 (NAS)
In today's disposable society, it is easy to toss God out or to push Him aside when our life gets too full. Satan is hard at work trying to distract our time away from God. The tyranny of busyness consumes us and lassos us away from our covenant to worship God with our whole life.
Once we make time, however, the benefit of worship is that we draw closer to His presence and develop a more intimate and loving relationship with Him, which enables us to live and move and have our being permeated with His power.
God desires for us to totally commit our life to Him. This involves all of our heart, all of the days of our lives. In order to accomplish this, we first have to sort through the excesses in our lives and rearrange our schedule. We start by eliminating the less important temporal activities made of wood, hay and straw in order to make more time to focus on eternal matters that are made of gold, silver and precious stones.
Prayer:
Lord Jesus, help us to establish the discipline of praying without ceasing, having an attitude of prayer with every thought, word and deed each moment of our day, so that we walk in the center of Your will. Thought for the Day:
God sprinkles our days with epiphanies, eases our load, encourages our triumphs and lights our path.
