Time goes so quickly.
At the moment, life is so fast paced, that it's hard to have any vacancy.
I just get in my car with the destination being one of three places, college, work, or church. It's routine.
Today I came home and just lounged around, only getting up to move between the computer, television and the kitchen. It feels like I've been doing this for half an hour, but it's been three and a half hours. I can't believe how fast time is, every minute you have is borrowed by somebody else, it's just a complete rush, and I don't even remember how it was when I was in high school two years ago, when I spent my time being a teenage girl.
Giving out so much makes it evident to me how much I need God. How can I keep giving out with nothing to inspire me, motivate me, or restore me? I don't understand how non Christians handle it! It's crazy. When I go about life, with no fire, and no vacancy, which is easy to do, but also dead. A dead life. A walking corpse like the bible says. Going back to that way of living in the midst of business is scary, because it's so easy, an easy but exasperating, and plainly dead.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, we shouldn't think of God in terms of time. We can't say, 'I spent an hour with God today so that's me done', or ' I read my bible before so I'm done for today'. Lets not think of our relationship with God int erms of time, but in terms of life. I know for sure those three and a half hours have been wasted, down the gutter and drained through a gris. The same way in which they have drained me, because the energies I have put into it isn't giving me any benefit. Invest your time in something worth investing in, other wise how can there be vacancy? And how can we ever give more out? We need a balance, of recieving and giving. And the Beauty is that God never ever stops giving.
