Make Time for God
By Teboho Masakala
If the is one thing that we don’t have most of the time.
It’s TIME! We get so busy with our daily lives that we don’t make time for our
Creator. We get so caught up with our
daily lives, work, business, family or whatever that takes a big chunk of our
time that we forget that we must make time for God.
No matter how busy we can be, we must make time for God.
Time is what most people don’t have as they are mostly pre-occupied but however
since some people may have little time, it is important to make it.
If we can make time to visit a sick relative at a hospital,
attend a funeral or a wedding, surely we can make time for God. If we can
divide our time for our spouses, children and work, surely we can also make
time for God.
God knows that we have to make a living and chase our
dreams. However he wants us all to himself, he wants us to give him our hearts.
How many times in a day do you make time to pray, read the bible and thank God?
Do you make time for God or only need him when you are in
trouble or suffering? Don’t remember God only in times of need but do make time
for him. Our lives will always be busy but that is not an excuse to not make
time for God.
Spending time with God is really precious, you can hear God
and converse with him as he is your loving and caring father.
If you have a hectic schedule, spend an hour with God or
whatever time you can make for God. God loves you. For once, forget about how
busy you are or a deadline to meet, think about God and all he has blessed you
with.
Remember how you prayed when you needed God and how he made
time to help you and answer your prayers. So it is important that you find time
for God, look at the time you make for others and ask yourself if you are doing
the same for God.
If you can sacrifice taxi money to spend time with family
and travel long distances, what’s stopping you to sacrificing for God and make
time for him?
Life is short. You don’t know how long you will live, make
time for God. If you don’t have it, find it and use it. Make time for the
Creator of heaven and earth.
