DISTRACTED BY HIM

This morning as I have been trying to have my quiet time, distractions and stumbling blocks have blocked my path.. Or have I “allowed” the distractions to become stumbling blocks?

Its now the afternoon... And I still haven't had my appointment with God.

I have allowed my dead computer, my lost glasses, my messy closet, the clean dishes in the dishwasher screaming to me to be unloaded, my to do list...to name just a few of the minor distractions...to distract me.  But it only takes a few minor things to distract me from answering the Call to sit with my Savior to receive all that I need for this day.

What a brat I am as I have the privilege to sit with my King, yet I take advantage of His grace. I have no reason to grumble or allow silly things to aggravate me - yet I do.

I am tired of allowing the mundane build up to cause frustration in my soul.

So... I found Jesus in the midst of the mundane.  I have finally pushed the little nuisances away and made my time with Jesus a priority. It is in the choosing to make Him the first appointment of the day. I thought I did this morning,  but as I jumped out of bed I dragged Him around with me instead of allowing Him to lead me. I am sure He has some brush burns on His knees!
