Sometimes it's crazy to think of the things that can occupy our time. I am blessed to say that my time has been spent in the Word and with family. Two of the most amazing things in the world! And in doing so, I have found some truly great things! I have found a peace that I've never known before, I have come to know and love the Lord more and I am building better relationships with my family!
Have you ever stopped to think about what things are occupying your time? How are you spending the time God has graciously given you? How do you start your day? How do you end your day? I will tell you that if you are not spending time in the Word and building your relationship with God, then things are not headed in a positive direction.
I'm not gonna beat around the bush....It doesn't matter what you've done, where you've been or how far you've fallen...God loves you! You are AMAZING!! He sees you in a way that we don't allow our own eyes to see ourselves. Sometimes we think we have to be perfect before we can attempt to enter into the presence of the Lord, but that just simply is not the case. Honestly, the more broken, the better. It's only then we realize how much we need Him. We can't do it on our own or in our own strength. So what do you have to offer HIM? You! Just the way you are. All He wants from you is ALL of you! However, in order for us to give ourselves to Him, we have to be careful where we are spending our time. Not only that, but we have to be careful of the things we even think about. Where the mind goes the heart follows and if it's not on God, then you might want to stop and reassess the situation.
With much Love,
