Have you ever evaluated where you spend your time? How much time you spend surfing the internet, watching TV, reading unimportant updates on celebrities you'll never meet, and whose lifestyles are probably not consistent with a Christian faith?
Now let me ask you the question I'm currently wrestling with....How much time do I spend in prayer, reading God's Word, and developing myself to better lead? To me this is an indication of priorities.
Our Father in heaven has summoned us to a life of wild adventure but it is easy to settle for a life of routine trivia.
One of the blogs I follow had this to say... I was
sitting in Barnes and Noble the other night and as I look at the people
around me, one guy was reading a comic book and the other guy was
reading a book on coloring (I'm not kidding). I'm at my orthodontist's office yesterday and one person is reading a magazine and two others are texting their friends. The bottom line is this: it's
not that we don't have enough time to do the important things. It's
that we waste a lot of time. It's one of the reasons I stopped
Twittering. I began to see it as a waste of time for me. It made me
less productive and distracted me from the things I'm actually trying
to accomplish.
