“MAKE TIME FOR JESUS”
by Cindy Bice
Aloha!
*Today’s life-style is fast-paced and crammed-packed-full! It seems that every minute of every day is filled to the max and even then it seems like we don’t have enough time to do everything. *
The modern inventions that were supposed to help us save time have actually made it more convenient to do more in the same amount of time so we are busier now than ever!*
Do you feel like you’re burning the candle at both ends trying to get everything done? This may be a good time to take a few minutes and do some Spring Cleaning on paper. Make a time graph and see what takes up your time. You may want to spend less time doing some things and more time doing others. *
**Make Jesus First Priority. Give your life and all it entails to the Lord**
Matthew 6:33 “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”
1 Peter 5:7 (NKJV) “casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.”
Proverbs 16:9 (ISV) “A person plans his way, but the LORD directs his steps.”
Psalm 46:10 (NIV) “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted
among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”**God, you, your family, work, and then others.**
Our priorities may need to be revamped. We need balance in our lives. For those who work too hard and are constantly putting others first, remember to take care of yourself!
2 Thessalonians 3:10 (NIV) “For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: “The one who is unwilling to work shall not eat.”
Mark 12:30-31 (NIV) “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: Love your neighbor as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these.”
It’s not just Jesus and don’t worry about anything else. It’s Jesus on the throne of your heart and He’ll help you with the rest. Let Him help you with balance and order in your life.
