Today it's hit me; there are a lot of moving parts in my life. There are many things that need to be done, some more important than others. Just as soon as I have answered all of the emails in my inbox, another arrives. There are many things going on at church to be a part of. Then there's school, lots of books to read and a paper to write this week. My first seminary paper! Then there's the new job working with Soccer Shots that starts this week.
I like the busyness though. Every now and then I need a break, but generally, I always like to be doing something. It's my personality I guess. As I look back on today and look at everything that went on, if I hadn't been thinking about this blog tonight and reflecting, I probably would not have attributed any of this today to God's will and direction. Something that I need to work on is while I'm going throughout my day, all my actions need to be focused on serving God. I need to constantly ask myself, how is what I am doing today serving God. By focusing each day, whether busy or not, on Jesus, then it helps me stay directed towards his will and purpose, but it also helps steer away from sin.
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11
