“Again, he sent out servants, saying, ‘Tell those who are invited, See, I have prepared my dinner; my oxen, and fatted cattle are killed, and all things are ready. Come to the wedding.’ But they made light of it and went their ways, one to his own farm, another to his business.”
Matthew 22:4-5
Are we too busy for the LORD? This I believe is a good question for all of us. Are our jobs, businesses, recreation and our families more important than the LORD?
“You shall fear the LORD your God; you shall serve Him, and to Him you shall hold fast, and take oaths in His name.”
Deuteronomy 10:20
Do we let life and all its trappings get in the way of serving the LORD? Do we say things like: I’m too busy, I don’t have enough time or I have too much to do. We all need to make time to spend with the LORD, He made time for us!
“O God, You are my God; Early will I seek You; My soul thirsts for You; My flesh longs for You In a dry and thirsty land Where there is no water.”
Psalm 63:1
No matter what is happening in our lives, we need to put the LORD first in everything! He needs to be first in our families, our jobs and our social life! Don’t use busy as an excuse to not spend time with the LORD! Have a blessed day seeking the LORD and encouraging those around us to do the same.
Shabbat Shalom.
