too busy

Living in the Light

⁵ This is the message we heard from Jesus^[c] and now declare to you: God is light, and there is no darkness in him at all. ⁶ So we are lying if we say we have fellowship with God but go on living in spiritual darkness; we are not practicing the truth. ⁷ But if we are living in the light, as God is in the light, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.

⁸ If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and not living in the truth. ⁹ But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness. ¹⁰ If we claim we have not sinned, we are calling God a liar and showing that his word has no place in our hearts.


1 john 5-10




probably one of the biggest weapons of the evil one is busyness.  almost all of us are guilty of it.  we rush around doing things that are worldly, that keep us from spending quiet time with god.  We are called to spend time meditating in the word, to spend time with family.  We are called to lead our children and spouses IN THE LIGHT, AS HE IS IN THE LIGHT.  How can we do this if we are always busy doing things that really don't matter?  we can't.


Lord i pray that I would be still in your presence.  Help me to relax and slow down from this busy life, so i might hear you and lead my family in the way you would have us go.

in jesus name

amen
