For this is what the high and exalted One says—he who lives forever, whose name is holy:“I live in a high and holy place,but also with the one who is contrite and lowly in spirit,to revive the spirit of the lowlyand to revive the heart of the contrite.Isaiah 57:15(NIV, Bible Gateway)If you are ADHD or just can't focus it may be hard to get up each morning and purpose that you WILL spend time with God. Before turning on TV, before getting sidetracked with errands, before getting on the phone, before checking social media. It takes discipline for sure.Where is God in your life? Is He in the bottom of your dirty clothes pile in the laundry room in a basket? Perhaps He has found His way into the bottom of your junk drawer? Is He like that missing sock you simply have misplaced?Maybe it is time to REALLY change things up and come up with a workable plan to not be distracted from the most important part of your day. It is good to select a place to have a quiet time daily and every now and then get out and get away to a park where you can sit at a picnic table and talk to God. Maybe leave your cell phone off. Decide today something is going to be different. Put God on your day planner and then go for it and give Him time that He deserves plus it will help your spiritual walk than news or stock updates ever will. Your choice.PRAYER: Love I love you but I confess many days I just get strung out all over the place with things that are beckoning for me to give them attention. I choose to give you attention Lord and not let the tyranny of the news daily updates take me away. I want to be in the world but not of the world. Help me. In Jesus' name. Amen.#Biblegatewayblogger
