“If Satan can’t get you to sin
he will get you busy”-Billy Sunday
How are you and God doing? Let me ask it this
way…are you giving God your best each day, or your leftovers?
Why do we work so hard to be our
best at school, work, etc., but we are only casual in our efforts to grow in
our walk with Christ?
The greatest
thing the enemy can do is get us busy with “good” things and keep us
away from the “great” things that God intended for our
lives!!
What does God’s word
say:
…a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet
listening to what he said. But Martha was distracted by all the preparations
that had to be made. She came to him and asked, "Lord, don't you care that my
sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!" "Martha,
Martha," the Lord answered, "you are worried and upset about many things, but
only one thing is needed. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be
taken away from her." Luke 10:39-42
Martha was doing “good” things for the
Lord and things that sometimes need to be done, but the “greater”
thing is to be still and listen to the Lord of this universe and more
importantly the Lord of YOU and me!
If you are too busy to read this you may be too
busy for God?!?
Just a thought!
