I would take a significant amount of time to write this, but I have three other things that I need to do…wait…that doesn’t sound right does it? When it comes to making time for God, we often come short. It is a growing reality that is starting to trend everywhere that you see. There are those that do a great work and stay in the path for God, and I truly admire them. When I begin to talk to people like that about how it is they stay on track, they always make references to “not getting too busy” or “letting life get too fast”.<\/p>\n

I use to joke about that and think that people really only have time for God when they get older and do not have to work so hard for their living. I have definitely changed my outlook on this permanently. I have found that there is always time for God and that it simply goes unnoticed (or in some cases noticed but rejected). In a biblical context, I consider the part about the good samaritan. There were a couple of people that passed by the person who was beaten and in need of someone to have compassion, and yet could not for their own defined reasons. The good samaritan could have passed by as well, but the love and compassion truly worked in this case.<\/p>\n

We need to always remember to be careful to not pass by the needs of others and to continually keep the compassion and love of God in our hearts. We keep these things by the continually seeking of God. We keep the continual seeking of God by making time for it! Put it in your datebook, cell phone, outlook calendar, or write it on your hand if you have to! Keep God above all else and you will demonstrate what will not only keep you but help others in their time of need!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
