Too Busy


I just got busy! Have you ever heard anyone say that? Have you ever been there yourself? Too busy to go to church...too busy to invest in someone’s life...too busy to listen to someone...too busy spend time with your family...just too busy. It seems to me that the times in our life when we are busy, we loose touch with what is important...we lose margin.
I just got back from a day at the lake. It was an incredible day of fun, relaxation, and fellowship. How could anyone get too busy for that? I have had a week that has lowered my stress and put everything into focus for me. It is no surprise when we get too busy...God and Relationships are the first to go. Kind of interesting since the most important commandments are to love God with all you have and love your neighbor as yourself. It seems as though we are getting sidetracked.
Maybe you are sidetracked! Maybe you have lost sight of the purpose of life. I want to encourage you to spend some time Sunday with God and then spend some time investing in someone else's life. You are a relational being...you were meant to have relationships.
Tomorrow...Create Margin...Enjoy Life.... Invest in someone...that is how you finish empty.
Psalm 34:8

I slept in this morning. . .I decided to take a little break. I woke-up late and slowly. It was great. I love your blog. It's encouraging and up-lifting especially if you live by it. Margins, I've made 'em. I've practiced 'em. I've lived life through them. Thanks J-man
