I once heard it said-
How true is this?!?
It really bothers me when I hear someone tell me how they can’t fulfill a commitment, because they are too busy. Then I see them move heaven and earth to do what they want to do. Then I was thinking today about how I too might use the excuse “I didn’t (or don’t) have time for….. ” as a reason for not accomplishing something. You probably have too!
But the truth is, if we want to do something we will make time no matter how busy we are. We will rearrange schedules, and figure out a way to make something that we want happen. At least I know I will, I can’t speak for you.
Ephesians 5:15-16 tells us
The Word says- Make the most of your time!
The thing is, we need to be as intentional about what we need to do as we are about what we want to do! Instead of putting off things and talking ourselves out of doing the things that are beneficial to us, let’s make a commitment to get rid of the excuses!
I’m going to start today! Who’s with me?
Pastor Liz,
I am with you, I have 2 things I need to do and I, with God’s grace will complete them.
Thanks for the reminder.
Love,
Kathy
