I had been seeking a job for years, one where I would be able to help with the needs of the household. Many of you know what it is like when you can barely find an end let alone make two ends meet. By the grace of God for five weeks I had a job, and it was a blessing. I was able to provide for my household in ways I had not done in a long time. Bless God. What I noticed now I am not working, is that things around the home in some areas were neglected. We did not achieve all that was needed done. So now Im washing the extra clothes that were not the 'essentials', and dusting and pulling weeds that have got amazingly big since I last took notice of them. It is amazing what we can overlook and think nothing of it.
In our relationship with God many tend to do the same thing. I know I have. Up most the night and half the day sharing Jesus with people that I stopped, looked around and found that my reading time in God's word had diminished, my devotion time had been overlooked. I praise God that I was able to pray, encourage, share and so on.
James 1:22 'But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only...' Therefore the same can be said of this 'But be ye hearers of the word, and not doers only'. Remember there is a ballance, if your not hearing or reading its easy to loose the ballance/reality and Godly perspective of what your doing.
Enjoy JESUS in ALL He is.
