Word for the day "Make time for the Lord"
I Peter 5:7 (TLB) Let him have all your worries and cares, for he is always thinking about you and watching everything that concerns you.We will make time for those who are important to us. While this is not a hard and set fast rule, it’s true for most people. I have at times tried to plan on spending time with someone who continually put me off, but I would see them doing things with others. They would proclaim “I’m busy” when in truth they were too busy for me.Ever felt like you were unimportant to someone?I know Someone who thinks you are important. You are the apple of God’s eye. The Lord’s mind and heart are always on you. The Lord God continually is aware of your wants, needs and desires. God watches over you when you are hurting, suffering and in trouble. The Lord plans for your success, His thoughts towards you are immeasurable and unfathomable.So with that in mind, how important is the Lord to you? Are you planning your day around Him or trying to plan Him into your day? Are you hanging out with another during the time you set aside for God?Point to ponder- It hurts Jesus when He is cast aside. God longs to commune with you. The Lord longs to just sit and talk. Remember God is waiting to spend some time with just you.
