Today marks the beginning of the mid-semester break and there seemed to be so many things to do: OB project on blogging, MR pampers survey, IT term paper, Biz pol test and so on. The list just seemed to go on and on. So I decided to do my QT instead.
Why did I think that God can wait? That other things are more important than He is? How much time does doing QT take anyway? 15, 20 min? I know that time should never be a valid excuse. It's the attitude that matters.
Yesterday, during dg, my dgl was talking about accountability and mine was to pray consistently. Yes, I did say that I wanted to pray about future directions but before all that I guess all I really wanted was to be in His presence again. To really talk to God without getting distracted. In the midst of my busyness, I know that I have been neglecting my relationship with Him and it has been taking its toll on me. It's so much easier to just go along with everything and before I know it, I find myself drifting so far from where I'd like to be. Perhaps this break is just what I'd need to get back on track again.
After all, if I do not have Jesus, what do I have?
In this world full of hurt and brokenness, it is this perfect love that embraces all. A love that makes all things possible. A love that perhaps I'll never understand.
