Life can be so busy.....
It can be consumed by work, church, family, friends, obligations, birthdays, weddings, funerals, graduations, and everything else.

At times, I can get overwhelmed. I can totally lose site of what I am here for. I can rate things by importance and do those things first. Yet, I know that those things that people above me view as important are what I should consider a priority in my life. If my director tells me that I need to get something done ASAP, I need to drop everything and get that done. If my manager tells me to do something, I need to try to get it done soon after.

The same is true with God ~ to even more of a degree. When God tells me to do something, I need to be obedient, I need to repent and get rid of anything that is in the way. I need to make the things God values as my main values and the things that I purposefully put into my life. I can not continue to be rude and mean. I need to have kindness, gentleness, love, and mercy in my life. I can not require of other people what I do of myself. I need to be gracious and merciful, especially sense I never reach my own requirements. I need to spend more time getting to know God and focusing upon Him and who HE is so that I can better serve Him with my life.
