Time with God

How much time do you spend with God? Most people would say, I spend a lot of time with him, "when I get the time to." You see, we all have busy lives, and we don't have enough time to spend with God, everyday, or so we say. But, one of the problems that we have, is that we have our priorities mixed up. We would say that God comes first, but when you but that into real words, that means that we actually have to spend time with God, like he is out first priority. We have to make time for Him, we can't expect that their will just be time for Him, but we have to make time.

And then once we make time, we have to keep it, and make it a normal thing that we do every day. We have to make sure that we keep up with it, and not just say we are going to do it, but don't. We actually have to do it.

Some kids, when we go to camp we get on what I like to call a "spiritual high" were we are all on for God, and we say that we are going to keep up with everything. We say that we are going to read our Bibles, and do whatever it takes to be all out for God, but then when we get home, and we get back into our normal things, we don't do it. We don't say with it, we just back out, and go back to our normal lives, and forget about it. But, we actually have to make the rule for ourselves, and actually do it.

So, right now, if you feel open to it, I want you to make a rule for yourself, on when and where you are going to spend time with God.....

Make a list...

1. When

2.Where

And then once you have done that, you have to stick to it. You have to actually do it, and stay with it. And do it, not because you have to, but because you want to. Because you want to learn more about God, and it is normally in those times that God will show you the most amazing things, because he is so amazing like that. We could never understand! So, tonight, or tomorrow morning, start it! It doesn't have to be for a long time, do it even for 5 minuets, and after a little while, the time will just build up, and you will be amazed at how God works in your life. But, you have to make the choice to do it, and to stick with it.

So, what are you going to do? When? Where? Are you going to take the challenge?
