A little thought to jump start your day!


Howdy everybody,

This is my first time to post a blog so I hope everything works out alright.  I pray that everyone is having a blessed week and that you’re not getting too stressed with the business of this semester. 

So I want to ask you all a question.  How much time do you give to God each day?  An hour? Five minutes?  Or do you find yourself falling into that rut of putting Jesus on the back burner for a little bit because your schedule is getting too busy.  Sadly, we tend to remove our personal devotional time from our lives before anything else, I’m guilty of this numerous times.  But God has told us plainly that it is in these busy and trying times we need Him most.  Matthew 6:33 states this, “But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.”  So I challenge all of you this week to remember and set time aside for God.  Do not let the troubles of the world lay siege to your life; remember to give devotion to the one who gave His life for us.  So put aside the worries about class, tests, relationship, crunchtime retreat, finances, and pick up your Bible.  Spend some time with Christ this week and I assure you things will go smoother.

Ill end with a quote by John Wesley, “It cannot be that the people should grow in grace unless they give themselves to reading. A reading people will always be a knowing people. ”    

Blessings!
