Re-igniting.....

So over the Christmas period my schedule goes crazy.

I sleep in ridiculous amounts, I eat to much food, I forget to read my bible at my usual time, I forget to write on my blog.

All these things are things that were kinda programmed into my head.

But over a time of a month I have forgotten what I 'usually' do....

Do you ever find that once you forget to do something for a while its harder to get back into it instead of forgetting it?

I have this thing where I would wake up late and I would know I have missed my bible time so I would try to ignore it. But I would know.

So you ignore it day after day excusing it because you 'really needed that sleep" or "sometimes its ok to skip"....

As you can see I am a pro at that.

----------------------------------

The thing is when I am happy to turn my back on the things that should be so much more important to me is when I show what my true priorities are.

Yeah sleep is important.

But so is connecting with the Father.

If God turned around and said "ah today they don't need me, I am gonna skip them"...

What would happen then?

God is priority one.

If He isn't, then what is?

I have struggled with this a lot.

Is my pregnant wife number one?

Is my unborn child number one?

Am I number one?

If anything else is number one before God then there is a problem.


-----------------------------


How do I get that right then?

How do I put God above everything else?

How do I get the balance right?

Well the disciples done it...

They left everything.

What would you do?

What would I do??

Would I leave everything I owned and take the ultimate step of faith?

Even as I am writing this, my head is screaming NO!!!!

Just something to think about......

Priorities, they are a big thing.
